High-altitude U-2 spy planes began making reconnaissance flights over the USSR in 1956, giving the U.S. its first detailed look at Soviet military facilities. Did you know? U-2 pilot Francis Gary Powers carried a tiny needle filled with poison so that he could take his own life if he faced capture.

Answer:

The U-2 Spy Planes were very effective initially, because of their ability to fly at high-altitude (~70,000 feet into the sky), as well as the ability to fly almost to a mach. Compared to many of the military hardware of the day, it was almost impossible to find them on radar, and even when it was possible, it was nigh impossible to intercept them in time.

What were causes of sectionalism?

Leto [7]

The correct answers are A) economic differences, B) the presidential election of 1860, D) social differences, and E) the issue of slavery.

The following were causes of sectionalism: A) economic differences, the presidential election of 1860, social differences, and the issue of slavery.

Sectionalism divided the United States into many forms. It confronted American people on a variety of issues that ended up in a bloody Civil War. The presidential election of 1860 divided the nation. Republican candidate Abraham Lincoln defeated Democratic candidate Stephen A Douglass, and Constitutional Union candidate Jhon Bell. There were many economic differences that divided poor people that tried to make a living with the wealthier people. This created social differences that were notorious and showed the lack of basic things that many people had. And of course, slavery, the issue that divided the North against the South. The Northern states supported desegregation laws while in the South they were against desegregation. For the Southern states, slavery was the base of the economy in the farm fields.
