U.S. Introduction of More Fighter Bombers into S. Korea Flailed
Korean Central News Agency of DPRK via Korea News Service (KNS)
Pyongyang, June 23 (KCNA) -- The U.S. imperialist aggressors transferred 20 F-16 fighter bombers and more than 300 air force personnel from the air force base in Aviano, Italy and deployed them in their air force base in Kunsan, south Korea on June 19 in the wake of the announcement about the transfer made on June 14.
It was reported that the fighter bombers would involve themselves in joint military exercises with the air force of the U.S. imperialist aggression forces in south Korea and the air force of the south Korean armed forces during their long presence there.
In the meantime, the U.S. imperialists staged madcap air battle drills and exercises for intensive strikes at ground targets, close air support and airlifting operations in coordinated operations with F-16 fighter bombers and formations of A-10 assault planes belonging to the U.S. seventh air force in south Korea after deploying overseas based F-15, F/A-18, E-3, EP-3 and flying corps of other type planes in their bases in south Korea.
Japan-and Guam-based B-52 strategic bombers and F/A-18 pursuit and assault planes flew into the air over areas of south Korea in pairs or in formations periodically and staged air battle operational exercises in parallel with the long distance navigation exercises of dropping bombs before returning to their bases, while being refueled in the air.
It is a very dangerous military provocation that the U.S. imperialists are busy staging frantic air battle exercises targeted against the DPRK by massively reinforcing the air force in and around the Korean Peninsula and introducing war planes even from Europe into it.
The U.S. imperialist warhawks had better immediately stop the anti-DPRK war exercises and pull back the air force from south Korea.
