Re: Soviet balloon
Gentleman- all info you have provide here are very interesting and off course very helpful. Fact is that at the height you can see much more ahead. I know when I was active mountain climber that from the height of some 1200 meters we could with easy see Belgrade which was more then 300 km far away. In closes distances, like the distance of the artillery fire range, observers in that position could with easy locate enemy equipment and points and very precisely guide its own artillery fire.
This question I placed here as well I never search anything about the WW2 balloons and in the age of the developed aircraft for the tactical and strategic recognizance it sound a little bit "old fashioned" to use balloons.
Thank you again for the kind reply and very valuable info.
