Communist Air Strength By ROBERT EUNSON TOKYO (AP) -- The combined Communist air force in the Far East--Russian, Chinese and North Korean--totals more than 6,500 planes, says Gen. 0. P. Weyland, commander of the U. S. Far East Air Forces. In an interview, he put Chinese and North Korean strength at 2,000 combat planes, and said the Rus- sians have at least 4,500 more based near Vladivostok, on Sakha- lin and in the Kurile islands. "A preponderant number of these Soviet planes are fighters," Wey- land went on, "But recently the Russians have converted many of with the capability of reaching any- where in Japan. bers to constitute a good wallop, especially if they are carrying the atomic weapon. "The Russians have converted about 85 per cent of their fighters to jets. These are fighter inter- ceptors, primarily to guard their bases from attack: IMPROVED PLANES "Likewise they have improved their bombers. They are replacing their old medium bombers, the TU-2, with an IL-28, which is some- thing like our B-49. It is a fast jet with the capability of reaching any- where in Japan or Korea. "The Communist air force has not increased in numbers in the last year or two so much as it has ingroved its planes." eyland said the air fields around Vladivostok make wp "the largest complex of bases in the world." : In addition to the jet bombers, Weyland said the Russians have "an impressive number' of TU-4s, which were copied from one of Second World War and were never returned. "That amount of aircraft consti- tutes a definite threat in the Far their light bomber units to jets |gap ""They-have enough of these bom- 2 three B-29s that made forced land-. ings on Russian soil during the | In East Totals 6.500 East," Weyland said, "but all we can do is sit and wait and watch." When the Korean war started, the North Korean Air Force had 150 obsolete Russian planes, Wey- land said. Entry of the Chinese into the war brought the MIG-15, the Russian jet fighter interceptor, The first was shot down Nov. 1, 1850. For a time this new Rus- sian jet caused considerable worry among U. S. pilots. ARRIVAL OF SABRES A month later, however, Sabres began arriving in Korea and in the first week of combat the F-86s shot down seven MiGs and dam- aged two with the loss of only one re. This running fight between the Sabres and the MiGs went on for years. The Sabre came out on top of its Russian rival nearly 14 to one--58 Sabres were lost in air combat to 802 MiGs. One question often heard during the Korean war was: Why not bring ont the B-36s and six-jet B-47 bombers, says Weyland: "The answer is the B-29 was plenty of airplane for Korea, so ong as our range was limited to the Yalu river on the Manchurian border. The B-36 has great range, but it wasn't needed since our B-29s reached all North Korean laygels from Okinawa and Japan with lots of fuel left. "The B-47 is primarily an atom- bomb carrier, and so fast that it can outrun some types of jet fighters--those of the enemy and our own. But like the B-36 it wasn't needed." YWCA FRIDAY, FEB, 5 INT.
