MUCH REDUCED
ENEMY TOTAL BOMBING FORCE. LONDON, June 4. The magazine “Aeroplane” estimates that Germany’s total bomber force at present is somewhat under 2000 1310’163, with a total bomb-load capacity of not more than 4500 tons. To these can be added a force of fighter-bombers, each of which is capable of carrying only one 5501 b. bomb. If the whole Luftwaffe, including the night-fighters, concentrated on one area, its total bomb-load capacity would not exceed 6000 tons, which is 300 tons' less than the Royal Air Force dropped on Germany last week.
