Fear of U.S. Atomic Itlew Footlighters' Tryouts Slated
Bomb Force Prompted
Russia To Build MIG
Br CHARLES CORDDRY
UnUad Press Aviation Writer
Washington (U.R) Fear of
America's atomic bombing for
ces caused the Russians to mass
produce the MIG-15 jet inter
ceptor, which they now are
throwing into the Korean war
in mounting numbers.
Military experts say the evi
dence is plain that the Mikoyan
Gurevich design was turned out
originally to defend Russia
against attack by high-flying
bombers. It is a purely defensive
airplane with a flight endur
ance of about 45 minutes. Its
armament is slow-firing cannon,
suited to fighting bombers rath
er than fighter planes like the
F-86. Its rate of climb is ex
tremely high for a plane of its
vintage, intended to get it to
bomber altitude on short notice.
Awareness Evident
Gen. Hoyt S. Vandenberg, Air
Force chief of staff, recently
told the United Press:
"The fact that the Soviets
should have invested so heavily
in the production of this par
ticular airplane is evidence of
the Soviet Union's awareness of
the power of our Strategic Air
Command."
The extent of the Russian in
vestment is indicated by the
numbers shifted from European
Russia to Manchuria apparent
ly more than 1,300 since No
vember, 1950. The Reds have
900 MIGs available in Man
churia today. In the past, 230
were shot down. And, if Amer
ican experience is a guide, an
other 230 MIGs have been lost
through non-combat causes.

chief purposes in Korean bat
tles: 1. At first, in the hands of ob
viously inexperienced airmen,
they appeared in moderate num
bers to defend the Yalu river
valley. This phase lasted well
into 1951. It put an end to day
light attacks by piston-engine
bombers along the Yalu.
2. Stung badly by the Allied
air offensive against Red ground
forces and supply routes, the
Communists last fall threw in
MIGs in vast numbers and be
gan to range more deeply into
northwest Korea. But, opposed
by American Sabrejet fighters,
the MIG forces failed to hamper
Allied attacks on Red ground
targets.
3. The "MIG Alley" battles
have given the Reds invaluable
training. Because of their great
er numbers of planes, they have
trained far more pilots in actual
jet combat than the U.S. Air
Force.
Tanks, Bombers
In Hanoi Fight
Saigon, Indo-China U.R)
French troops have thrown
tanks and dive-bombers against
Communist rebels in positions
only 20 miles from Hanoi, it
was announced Saturday.
French forces attacked the
rebels Friday, a general head
quarters communique said.
Near French Bastion
The fighting took place in the
vicinity of Vinyen, northwest
of ' the city, the great French
bastion in the north.
Heavy artillery fire helped
planes, tanks and troops to pin
down two battalions of the Viet
Minn rebel troops, the com
munique said.
No Explanation
There was no explanation how
rebels in apparent big numbers
managed to penetrate so close to
Hanoi.
Only two weeks ago, the de
fense perimeter of Hanoi was
tightened after the French with
drawal from the inland strong
hold of Hoa Binh.
