USSR: The SA-4 Ganef surface-to-air missile
(SAM) system is now apparently being deployed to
Soviet ground forces.
Press reports of a large Soviet military exercise
held last week indicate that the Ganef is being used on
large-scale maneuvers. The system is intended to
provide greater mobility to missile forces defending
Soviet ground troops. In previous Soviet military
exercises, notably the Carpathian exercise in 1961,
SA-2 SAM units assigned to protect ground forces were
unable to keep up with fast-moving units in the field
and were plagued by resupply problems.
Ganef missiles are twin-mounted on tracked
transporter- launchers that give the system good mo-
bility. The large AN-22 assault transport can airlift
the transporter-launchers with the missiles attached.
The ram-jet - powered Ganef reportedly has an ef-
fective range of about 27 nautical miles and probably
can hit aircraft flying as high as 65, 000 feet. F ::1 25X1

Brunei: The abdication of the Sultan may hasten
political reform and independence.
The Sultan, who stepped down on 4 October in
favor of his eldest son, has been. the major stumbling-
block in recent years to British desires to lead the
oil-rich protectorate toward responsible self-govern-
ment and eventual independence. London's decision
to withdraw its Gurkha battalion next year may have
contributed to the Sultan's decision to abdicate.
Malaysia has long wanted to incorporate Brunei
into the federation for economic as well as political
reasons. It is doubtful, however, that the new ruler
would consider sharing with Kuala Lumpur his oil
revenues, which give Brunei the highest per capita in-
co,ipe in Southeast Asia.
Dissident political elements, remnants of those
which staged an abortive rebellion in December 1962,
are unlikely to use the transfer of power to create
disorders, since they will benefit from any move to-
ward democratic government. The presence of the
Gurkha battalion and the indigenous Brunei Malay
Regiment in an case would assure the maintenance of
security. (Map)

Brazil- France: Negotiations for the sale of
French-built supersonic jet fighters to Brazil are
being stepped up.
Some French officials already are in Brazil anq an
active-duty air force general representing the French
Government is expected in Rio de Janeiro on 21 October
to continue negotiations with the Brazilian Air Force.
A possible package deal may be in the making, in-
cluding a French agreement to establish an aircraft
factory in Brazil. This prospect is particularly at-
tractive both to the Brazilian Air Force, which has long
sought to establish such a capability, and to the govern-
ment, which is pushing to expand the national industrial
base.
Brazil is eager to modernize its equipment and
has attempted to purchase US-made F-5 supersonic
jets, If the US-Brazilian discussions on this subject
do not begin soon the deal with the French may be
concluded,

Peru- Chile: Peruvian charges that Chile recently
acquired guided missiles and other military hardware
from the Soviet Union are false.
A Peruvian congressman claimed on 2 October
that in addition to guided missiles, Chile recently p4r-
chased supersonic fighter aircraft and tanks from the
Soviet Union. He also alleged that a $500 million
credit deal was being negotiated for additional Soviet
military equipment. The Peruvian press has played up
the congressman's statements.
None of Chile's military armament is of Soviet
origin. The only missile in its inventory is the British-
made Sea Cat--a destroyer-mounted antiaircraft weapon
with limited range.
The congressman's charges may be designed to
justify Lima's purchase from France of tanks and of
=supersonic Mirage-V aircraft--a simplified version
of the Mirage-III.

USSR-Pakistan: The communique issued on
4 October at the end of President Ayub's ten-day visit
to the USSR contained nothing unexpected. The
Soviets promised increased economic and technical
assistance, but there is no sign that Ayub persuaded
Moscow to give him the arms he says he needs agaipst
an Indian threat. The Soviets continue to tread care-
fully in. the area of Pakistani-Indian relations; Premier
Kosygin publicly offered Moscow's blessings to bi-
lateral efforts in this field.
