Newspaper Page Texti Have Russians Copied Sperry Plane Sight Br CHARLES CORDDRT United ?imi Aviation Writer : Washington UJ9 Airmen are wondering when the first MIG 15 jet will show up with a Rus sian copy of the U. S. Air Force's radar aircraft sight ; An expert just back from Ko rea said Friday if and when that happens, American F-86 Sabre losses probably will rise. So far the rate of Sabre loss is only one for every eight MIGs downed. , Slow Firing Blamed . ... But many a Sabre pilot is fly ing today who would not be, except for the MIGs slow-firing cannon and inaccurate optical gunsight, according to this ob server. How much progress Russia may have made in copying the Air Force's electronic comput ing sight is not known. Nor is it -known whether Russia actual ly has possession of one of the sights, which control gunfire. rocket fire and bomb drops from Sabre and F-84 Thunderjet fight ers. Sight .Examined But it is established that Rus sians or their agents have ex amined and probably photo graphed the Sperry-built sight, called the.A-10. The sight on at least one of two F-84s which made forced landings in Czechoslovakia in June, 1951, was dismantled. It was intact when the planes were returned to the Air Force, how ever. There also is the possibility that the Reds may have salvaged a sight from a downed plane in Korea. There is no way of know ing whether they were destroyed in all such cases. The A-10 automatically solves fire control problems. A pilot in line with his target sees a circular pattern of light on his windshield and presses 'the fir ing switch. The sight computes range, altitude and dive angle. In dive bombing against ground targets, not even a switch has to be pressed. At the proper point in the dive, the sight auto matically releases the bomb. Copying the Sperry sight would be tough going even Business Conditions Above Last Year - Portland U.R) The Federal Reserve system said Thursday that February business, condi tions in Portland, Salem and Eugene as gauged by bank debits were well above last year.

Slrike Slows Work Af Hanford Plan! Richland, Wash.
