This memorandum is a review and analysis of Route 1062, which lies over the water along the coastal periphery of the South Air Defense District. The evaluation is in support of -mission- scheduled to be flown on 20 January 1968, and is forwarded in compliance with this Office's responsibilities as set forth in the reference. 2. Review of the mission route indicates the possibility of at least one MIG-21 fighter reaction. The most recent available AOB information indicates the presence of six MIG-21s at Nanning/Wu-yu airfield (22-36N/108-10E) and a single MIG-21 at Lei-pei airfield (21-24N/110-12E) as of 17 January 1968. 3. There is only a very remote possibility of a SAM reaction against the mission if Route 1062 is flown as planned along the periphery twenty to twenty-five nautical miles from the mainland. 25X1A DONALD F.
