HC Deb 23 November 1973 vol 864 c536W
Mr. Hugh Jenkins

asked the Minister of State for Defence what are the sizes of the six largest air forces in the world.

Mr. Kershaw

I assume that the hon. Member has in mind numbers of combat aircraft. On this basis, the six largest air forces are estimated to be those of the People's Republic of China, France, Poland, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom and the United States of America.
