Spotlight on Russian Subs
Brassey’s Annual, a British review of world armed forces, notes Russia’s formidable submarine force and state of readiness. It cites about 380 submarines in service with 120 under construction, plus 2,800,000 men under arms and potential mobilization of 300 divisions within two months. The piece describes Stalinist control, a reorganized army, and a weak officer corps, with the air force fielding large numbers of high quality jet fighters though lacking heavy bombers besides one copy of the US B-23 Superfortress.
