Divided in two for decades between the late 1940s and early 1990s, Germany was the hottest 'battlefield' of the Cold War. Its western part was dotted by dozens of major military facilities of the reconstituted national armed forces and those of the NATO allies, foremost the USA, Great Britain and France.

On the ground, the city of West Berlin - situated in the center of the German Democratic Republic (GDR) - and the three occupation zones controlled by the USA, Great Britain, and France, was connected to the outside world only via tightly controlled railways, waterways or autobahns. However, in the air, three Aerial Corridors connected it with West Germany.
