Planes and delays in wartime aircraft orders
The article argues that despite large orders for bombing planes, only a fraction has been delivered. It cites 343 total orders from 1941 into 1942, with 34 planes delivered after 100 days, and warns of lack of coordination among government agencies and procurement delays. It urges clarity on who bears responsibility and criticizes red tape hindering defense readiness.
