=History =

The Spy Plane was a sleek lightning-fast jet used to spot Allied troop movements and bases in World War II. It was extremely durable and requried a tremendous amount of AA fire to down. Any Soviet Commander with an Airfield was authorized to call this craft in. Once called from the production tab it flew in off-screen and towards its target and took an image which appeared on the commander's viewscreen. It's widespread usage most likely led to the adoption of the Gap Generator by the Allies as a standard base defense. It fell out of useage by GWWIII and was replaced by an advanced Spy Plane.
