The first identification of P-4 PT boats in North Korea was made 25X1 D on photography of (Figure 1). A total of seven these Soviet-designed boats were observed at three different loca- tions. Two were at Nampo, three were at Kwangyang-ni (on ways), and two were at Sagon-ni (on ways). 2. Recently, a decrease in the number of P-li PT has been noted at Ling-shan-wei Motor Torpedo Boat 25X1A Base in China which may indicate that the boats in North Korea were transferred from that installation. 3. The appearance of P-4 PT and Chinese-type artillery tractors at Kwangyang-ni tends to support recent speculation that a military aid agreement may have been effected between Communist China and North Korea in addition to a new economic aid agreement.
