R A F Production Six Months Ahead Of Schedule
London May 29 Royal air force output is six months ahead of plan and may reach nearly 1000 aircraft monthly as expansion projects near completion. The Sunday Times correspondent says annual wartime production could hit 35000 to 40000 planes to renew the front line fleet every five to six weeks. He notes factories built in 18 months enable emergency expansion to three or four times normal output. He warns Britain’s fast fighter stock is near minimum, enabling intensified bomber production. Hawker Hurricane at 330 mph and Supermarine Spitfire at 365 mph are cited as among the fastest fighters.
