Royal Prussian Jagdstaffel 8 was a fighter squadron of the Luftstreitkräfte, the air arm of the Imperial German Army during World War I.

Although the Jasta went out of existence along with its parent units shortly after the Armistice ending World War I, its experiences would strongly influence the subsequent Luftwaffe.

The basis of Jagdstaffel 8 was a small element of single-seat fighters attached to Feldflieger Abteilung 6 at Roulers Aerodrome.

Jasta 8 suffered a stutter in leadership during this summer; on 28 July, Staffelführer Gustav Stenzel was killed in action.

[3] When the Germans launched their Spring Offensive in March 1918, the Jasta uprooted three times, operating on the front of the 18 Armee.
