“Lifting altitudes are 500-3000 meters, volumes are up to 15-300 cubic meters, and the distance from the fronts is 20-50 km,” the expert said.

He also showed a photo of Russian positions with a balloon. The photo shows a 35-40 cubic meter probe capable of lifting a weight of up to 20 kg.

“It’s difficult and expensive to fill the probe with helium every time, so they keep it this way. It also ensures a quick launch,” adds Flesh.
