The monument is made of metal and depicts stylised paper aeroplanes soaring through the air, symbolising the souls of fallen reconnaissance soldiers. At its base is a memorial plaque bearing the inscription:
"Dedicated to reconnaissance soldiers — soldiers of the invisible front who fell defending the Fatherland… The souls cannot land, cannot openly enter their native home; may you forever soar above water and land, guarding the country and our peace. Union of Military Intelligence Veterans."
The monument is located near the upper platform of the Panorama W lift.
