From Kites to Cold War

The Evolution of Manned Airborne Reconnaissance

Tyler Morton
While sixth-century Chinese aviators used kites to scout their enemies’ positions, the technique didn’t spread and it was another 1,200 years before the Montgolfier brothers launched a hot-air balloon and, with it, a new era for warfare. Tyler Morton traces the evolution in airborne reconnaissance from that point to the Vietnam War, recording how airships and then aircraft became essential components of the military.
