Security Council outlines long range maritime strategy plan
Washington AP The National Security Council is shaping a maritime strategy to bottle up Soviet ships by land based Air Force fighters and mine capes while blocking Backfire bombers from U.S. fleets. Adm James L Holloway cited a 1.2 billion shipbuilding budget boost to add five ships, four missile frigates and a new 2 billion carrier as part of a five year program countering Soviet naval power with Navy Air Force allies and land based bombardment aircraft. The plan aims for a fleet near 600 ships, subject to NSC study and Ford’s decisions.
