U S and Soviet Firepower Compared by U S Officials
U S and Soviet forces are described as relatively balanced in overall power with U S advantages in airpower defenses and nuclear stockpiles. The piece notes B52s and Bears for long range delivery, advances in missiles and radar networks, naval dominance with carrier power, and a still larger Soviet emphasis on bombers and ground forces. It cites Admiral Radford, Gen LeMay, and Sec Quarles on sufficiency and force mix.
