They were planes, not jets. And they were capable of dropping small bombs, but it was very inaccurate because people werent knowing shit about the aviation at that point, it was newest branch of the millitary at that point.
We didn't have bombs back then. Fighter jets were used exclusively for air to air. Some attack jets existed like the A-10 that were designed as a gun plane. and interceptors did not exist because there were no bombs hence no bombers.
>How come World War 1 fighter jets were incapable of dropping bombs?
Because bombing back then was done exclusively by Zeppelins like picrel. They could carry a lot of bombs but they were weak due to being made out of fabric. In WW2 they used metal instead of fabric but because it was heavier they add had to add wings.
>The primary role of a fighter is to shoot down other aircraft, not dropping bombs.
then explain why Hitler in his infinite wisdom delegated all the new high altitude bomber hunters and jet fighters to tactical bomber duty, checkmate atheists

They weren't jets they were lightweight propeller driven aircraft. Even then they did drop bombs. It's just that someone had to toss the explosive over the side so the whole exercise was useless.

kek this dude thinks the big air balloon can be used as storage for bombs
>but they were weak due to being made out of fabric
It wasn't true until the brits invented incendiary rounds, they were very resilient to bullets
