Has Biggest Navy, Also Hunter-Killer Fleet To Meet SubSuperiority Of Russians BY ALEXANDER R. GEORGE WASHINGTON, OP) The United States Navy is still the world's biggest. Its active'fleeta comprise 243 combatant ships. They are generally rated superior in strength to those of any other country. Some 450 combatant vessels tied up in the Navy's reserve would boost that power considerably if war should come. Russia, however, has a larger submarine force some 250 to 300 according to competent mili tary observers. There are 74 sub marines in the U. S. active fleets and 92 in the reserve, a total of 166. Some of the Russian submar ines (but reportedly not a maior portion of them) are the new high speed Snorkels. The Snorkels re equipped with breathing tubes which enable them to operate un der water a long time. j Russia is also known to have a highly potent defense fleet for use along its own shores. Admiral Forrest P. Sherman, chief of U. S. naval operations, said in a recent speech at the naval academy that Russia "does in truth possess a very powerrul navy designed for its own unique geographical situation." In the same speech Sherman said: "we must remember that in two wars we and our allies have suffered heavy losses from enemy submarines and that much development has taken place in submarines and more can be ex pected. Some military experU have said that soviet emphasis on submarine power is aimed primarily at con trol of the Mediterranean sea md its shores. With that control Rus sia could protect the southern flank of a Red army driving west across Europe. Sherman, however, said s 'J fa marines might launch guided mis siles against U.S. coastal cities. Aircraft Carrier Best Craft The aircraft carrier has replaced the battleship as the backbone of the American fleet. The U. S. has 11 carriers in the active fleet and 17 in the reserve, not including three of the 27,000-ton Essex class now being modernized. According to naval sources here, the Russians have no aircraft car riers unless they have recently converted other ships. A few months ago Sherman said Russia had added new, high-speed, heavily armed cruisers and many destroyers to its fleet. The Rus sians have three or four old battle ships. "Jane's Fighting Ships," a man uel of the world's navies, reported last December that the Russians were building three ultra-modern battleships equipped to fire radio controlled rockets and aerial torpedoes. ine united states nas one moo em battleship, the Missouri, i n I active service.

He said the tvpical anti-submar ine force would include fast car riers in conjunction with surface ships and submarines carrying guided missiles for attacking bases.
