The London Air Defence Area (LADA) was the name given to the organisation created to defend London from the increasing threat from enemy airships during World War I. Formed in September 1915, it was commanded initially by Admiral Sir Percy Scott, a controversial figure, responsible for major advances in naval gunnery techniques, but also accused of insubordination and profiting from his inventions.
