U. S. 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.

Admiral Sherman has said that
"besides the fast carrier and am

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. It would include hunter-
killer teams of submarines, sur
face ships, airplanes and blimps.
