Eyeballing Russian Airbases

[DavieB]

Google Maps has just released higher resolution satellite imagery of all Russian military installations (obviously includes air bases), so armed with this - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category: ... orce_bases - I have just spent an entertaining hour eyeballing some. Fascinating stuff - by way of an example Engels AFB - https://goo.gl/maps/2BAeLL4y2SZ2t7Sd6 Enjoy!

Kaliningrad is quite interesting to have a look around..
Will be interesting to see if the imagery will be up to date -ish
