U.S. DPRK-Targeted Air Battle Exercises under Fire

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK via Korea News Service (KNS)

   Pyongyang, December 14 (KCNA) -- The U.S. imperialist bellicose forces for aggression are now busy with air battle exercises targeted against the DPRK, while deploying flying corps in south Korea by turns from the outset of December, according to a military source.
    On Dec. 11 and 12 they deployed at least ten overseas-based F/A-18s and KC-130 in their air force bases in south Korea in the wake of their deployment of formations of F-15 on Dec. 4.
    They staged madcap air battle exercises in coordinated operation with the U.S. 7th air force in south Korea, while periodically deploying planes by turns.
    Involved in those drills staged on Dec. 12 and 13 were at least 280 planes belonging to overseas-based flying corps and those of the U.S. imperialist aggressor forces in south Korea including F-16, F-15, A-10, F/A-18. KC-130 was busy refueling them in the midair over south Korea.
    The U.S. would be well advised to behave itself and stop at once the above-said war exercises and immediately send back the flying corps deployed in south Korea.
