September 4, 1919

(Cavalry is helpless against low-flying planes.)

Comrade Sklyansky,

Could you get some learned military X.Y.Z. ... to reply (fast) to the following question: aeroplanes against cavalry? Examples. Flying quite low. Examples. So as to issue instructions on the basis of “science” (I read something about this once, ??? but one “practitioner”, I. N. Smirnov, ridicules it, and says it’s nonsense).

Lenin
