German aerial photography of world war II times of major cities of the USSR

in #history7 years ago (edited)

I think that everyone knows that during the war, intelligence is one of the most important activities. Without reconnaissance data, no offensive starts or bombings are made.


And aerial photography during reconnaissance - very much later helped to determine the main targets for bombing.


I bring to your attention the German reconnaissance aerial photography of several large cities of the USSR. Almost everything was filmed in 1941 by planes - scouts of the Wehrmacht. Basically everywhere, city centers.


I remind you again. It's all photos from German reconnaissance planes.


Moscow, the Kremlin, Red Square:


Leningrad:


Kiev


Rostov-na-Donu


Kursk


Smolensk


Kharkiv


Sevastopol
