Decision on Defense First Line to Be Made
In Washington the debate over the nation’s first line of defense centers on whether the long-range strategic bomber or naval carrier aviation should lead. Admirals and generals clash over strategic versus tactical airpower and the role of the Navy in future war, with concerns about bomber vulnerability and the need for forward bases. Admiral Radford notes the Air Force prioritizes slow, heavy bombs over faster, smarter airpower.
