Air power lessons from Allied aviation output and losses
General Arnold notes U S airplane production rising from 48 000 in 1942 to about 86 000 in 1943 and potential 1944 output, with roughly 48 000 combat and transport planes sent overseas and 24 500 lost abroad. He argues planes alone could not win the war but air power, sustained by vast production and training, is essential alongside ground and naval forces.
