Soviet armed might outpaces NATO says Washington column
Ralph de Toledano argues that Western isolationists ignore NATO assessments of Soviet strength. He cites a 6 percent annual defense budget rise over five years, 2 million Soviet troops in 220 divisions, 6,000 fighters, 1,510 ICBMs, 3,500 tactical nukes, and a dominant navy with 360 subs.
