to understand how it should work...
this possibility is being researched... where in cities on the airfields?

If researched, then a paratrooper in the range given in the examples can simply be determined.

is that how it should work?

All tiles in range of hangars can be set as target for para shoot drop. Or in game terms (Summon a paratrooper in a tile through an ability with set ranges.)

hmm that would be something like beaming in Star Trek. I'm not sure at the moment if I like this idea.

and I don't know if stratego can set it that way

Its definitely not beaming...

This is almost same in aoww as paratrooper plane going into one place then transform.. Except here. Its much farther and much faster process.

It can be done.
AOF have this ability already for some of their units. Buildings are counted as units anyway so it's totally possible.
