The Army Air Faroes Statistical

1>1Mert(World
II),
pWllehed bT the arfice of Stat1etical Control,
Headquarters,
Arrq Air Forces,
JDBkesavailable in one vol1.llle and on a Wliform basb
SllIIlIIIlU7statistios
on
AAF personnel, a1rcraf't, equipaent, combat operations lIIld other activities
during World War II.
Since March 1942, the ottice of Statistical
Control bas been oharged with the reepanaibU1t7 fer colleoting, p.-OO8llsiJlg,~.iJlg
and presenting statistics
on all Iilall8s of AAF strength lIIld activity.
It bas been
the practice to make these data available to interested offices in the form of recun'ing and apeoial reports.
The eummary statistics
publiehed in this volume were derived fran these reports
and from the more detailed
information available in the tiles of the Office of Statistical
Control.
Unless otherwise
only.
In a few cases
character of the data
the period Pearl Harbor

indicated,
the statistics
cover the strength lIIld operations of the II.rrrry Air Forces
where combinations have been made lIith other Arr:r:f lIIld Navy figures,
the ooverage and
have been olearly noted.
'tlhile most of the statistics
included here are mont~ for
to V-J Day, a few important series are carried back for a longer'period.

The detailed statistics

on JJ3 strength and operations
collected during World War II were used in analyses lIIld studies for the CommandingGeneral, ArI11 Air Forces,
and staff offioers at all echelons of cOlllllllUld.
IiIaD;y relationships
wers derived !rom, lIIld analJrt,ical uses made of, these basic statistics
during World War
II.
For example, as a result of a detailed stUIt' of the ratios of heavy bomber crews to heavy bomber airplanes in the European and !lediterranean Theaters of Operations in the fall of 1944, heavy balIber crews were
transferred
!rom ETC to arro in order to achieve greater balance in both theaters.
To cite another EIX8IIlple,
uage data euoh as gasoline oonSUlllption, bombtonnage dropped and sirplo.ne losses were related to operating
data like
tJ,ying time and oombat sorties to oompute planning factors
upon whioh supply requirements were
baaed.
A stUIt' of bombtonnage dropped in 1943 indicated that
planned production lIould be considerabq in
excess of potential future bomb consumption oomputed on the basis of available airplanes, their bomb-oarrying
capacity lIIld their estimated rate of use, plus a liberal allowanoe for strategio reserves.
To put it another
way, bomb production was out of balance with the other elements in the Air Faroes p.-ogram. Based on this
anaqais,
planned bombproduction was decreased, yielding a saving of several billion dollars
The sources of all of the figures in the vol1ml8, unless otherwise noted, lIere the standardized statistical reports instituted
bT the arfice of Statistical Control.
These reports,
originating at group and base
levels,
moved up through all the echelons of cOlllllllUld
to AAF Headquarters, and enabled statistical
offices at
each level to prepare consolidated reports for their organizations.
The final consolidation prepared at the
top eohelon of oOlllllllUld,
then, constituted an over-all
report of the world-wide AAF
To facilitate
the use of this volume,
specific }ilase of Air Force activity:

it has been divided into the follOlfing sections,

each covering a

1. Combat Groups
2.

The tables in each section are preceded by an introductorl

statement,
giviIl some indication of the purposes
for which -the data wera originally gathered,
the history and methods of compilation of the data,
specific
sources and examples of analytical uses of the figures.
In addition, notations pertaining to several
tables
in the section have been included in the introductory statement rather than in footnotes to separate tables.
Another saving in footnotes to specific tables has been made by the inclusion in the volume of a Glossary of
definitions
of tel'l!ls peculiar to the .!rD\r Air Forces.
Overseas theaters, as used in this volume,
cated unless specific exception is noted:,

have included tlie following Air Forces for the periods indi-

COMBAT

GROUPS

The strength of an air force

cannot be measured &8 well in terms of either
personnel or airplanes
&8
in terms of trained fighting units,
capub1e of engaging the ensm,y. The unit which has been gensral.ly used
duriJIg World War II has _n
the "combat group..
And it was the group which beCSJll8not only the basic measure of pt"8aent strength but also the planning unit upon which pr-ojected operations were baaed.
The composition of combat groups varies
according to the type airplane used.
Even for groups equipped
with the same type airplane,
the composition differs
occasionally because of varying
operational requirements.
FollOll1ng is a table showing the most usual make-up--in both plillles and personnel-of
the principle
types of combat units as of 20 February 1945:

Combat Mapping Squadron

In the above table, the organization

of reconnaissance
squadrons rather than of reconnaissance groups is
shawn because the group does not always comprise the same number or type of squadrOllS.
Generally spealdng,
however, three or four squadrons are assigned to a group headquarters,
which itself
consists of about 25 officers and 50 enlisted men. Furthermore, the table omits the Air COIIlID8lldo
Group, which is a ccaposite organization
consisting
of two reduced strength fighter
lIquadrons, one troop carrier
squadron and three liaison
lIquadrons, a total of 214 officers and 581 enlisted men.
At the peak of the pr-ogram, there were only three
Air Comando Groups, two in ChiDa and India-Burma and one in the Far East Air Forc.s.
'l'b ....
tIlree groups are
combined in the following tables with the Troop Carrier Groups because of the relative
similarity
of their
mission.
Four CClllbatCargo Groups, s1In11ar in cClllposition to Troop Carrier Groups and located in Pacific
Theaters, also have been cClllbir,edwith Troop Carriers.
Throughout the war, there were- always a few combat squadrons which were not assigned to a group headquarters.
These so-called .separate
squadrons. have been excluded from the tables that follow.
At the peak
of the pr-ogram, in April 1945, there were 65 of these .. parate IqUlldrODS,
25 of which nre recClDl&1saance,
and 16 of which were night fighter
squadrons.
Fractions of groups shown in the tables
indicate group headquarters to which fewer than the standard number of squadrons were atteched.

PERSONNEL, TRAINING

AND CREWS

Because the waging of air warfare requires a complex combination of men and machines, it was apparent
earq in World War II that existing
Arm personnel nports were entireq inadequate for intelligent
training, placement and control of ArrIv Air Forces personnel.
Reports were found to be necessary which contained
vastly more detailed information, both qualitative
and quantitative.
This requirement resulted in the institution
of two entirely new concepts in personnel reporting; first,
the reporting of all personnel by military specialty lthat is, by the job held and by qualification
to hold a
particular
job),
and second, the skeletal reporting of trained combat personnel as the unit
in which they
fight
(that is, crew reporting).
Both of these new concepts were inaugurated in .. new type of persolUlal report, known throughout the Air Forces as the AD Form JZ7 report.
Despl.te the complexity of this report, its comprehensive coverage of all pertinent persOllllel information
immediately simplified the entire field of personnel managementwithin the UF.
For, by proepering lIIItticient copl.es of the 127 report at each base or administrative unit,
the Air Forces permitted each echelon of
cOllllllaDd,up to and including Headquarters,
ArrI1 Air Forces, aimultaneouaq to have available identical personnel infOl'lll&tionfor each AAFbase and unit.
Furthermore, this report was specifically
designed so that it might be used at the lower operating echelOllS for the transfer,
placement and reassignment of specific personnel while at the same time it could be
used at the higher planning echelons in. the formulation of policy decisions
cootrolling the overall tlaw and
training of AAFpersonnel.
So successful was the initial
concept of this report, that, despite frequent changes in types of detailed personnel information required during the progress of the war, the basic framework of the 127 report was
never altered.
Early in 1943 the combat orew section was required at a graater frequency than the balallC8 of
the personnel information of the 127, and accordingly it was set up as a separate report.
The largest and most valuable section of the 127 report was that devoted to the reporting of AAFpersonnel by military
occupational specialty,
and thus,
several pages of the personnel section of this bodt are
devoted to SUllllll&ry
information on specialty data.
The 127 report has also served as the source of the basic
-data from which the summaries have been prepared on strength data by location,
grade, arm and service, sax,
race and tunctiCll1 (Cantinental US 0Illy).
Furthe1'll101'8,
the data on lIhipllents of u.F personnel to and frClIII
overseas theaters have been cOlllpiled from individual 127 reports.
All caeualty data have been obtained
through The .Adjutant General's ot'fice.
Civilian personnel data have been derived from a companfonreport to
the 127, mown as the AAFForm 134 report.
Becau8S the 127 report is an inventory report Ilhowingstatus as of a particular date, it was never possible to incorporate
so-called fiow and progress inforI:lll.tion of the type required for complicated training
scheduling.
Thus, within the general framework of the 127 report, several detailed training reports were instituted for the Training Camaand. The training statistic!,
included in the follow1Dg pages are generally deriv9d from thesa special reports.
AAFpersonnel
statistics
have--as a result of the world-wide 127 report--prcvided
a unique opportunity
to all higher headquarters
throughout the Air Forces for the preparation of meaningful studies and anal:rse8
which in turn have providild a constant stimulus to action on the part of staff officers.
Chief virtue of the
127 report
for this p.Jrpose has been that it always provided exactly compa.rahle data for every s1ngle unit
and person in the entire
lU'my Air Foroes--and this data have been collected on Ii cOlllparabla baais from the
inception of the report until the end of the war.
For example, considerable time has been spent in stwtring
the utilization
of so-called maintenance personnel in relation
to the workload imposed; the results of these
studies have been apparent in the "improved maintenance" in various units or commands which were found to be
laggiJl.
Another profitable type of personnel study has been the projeotion of personnel requirements by
specialty against the projected availability.
By anticipating
caeualties and other attrition,
by calculating
future increases or decreases in requireOlents and IT.:r taking into account the length of the trainiI18 pl.peline,
it has been possible
throughout the war to control the input of personnel into the various courses of instruction so that the AAFdid not suffer 8IlYsevere Ilhortages of critically
needed speoialists.
Because space has prevented the inclusion in this book of all detail contained in the personnel reports
received, it has been necessary to use the desienstion "Other" in many of the follooing tables.
Where used,
this term embraces the following:
1.

.Q!Jla.rContinental US - AAFCenter, CanmandingGeneral AAF, eIlroute to or at departure

points and, beginning June 1945, enroute to or from overseas (previous to June 1945,
in the overseas theater to or from which the personnel were enroute).

2.

it Mould be noted that the tables on fJT..ng and technical train1De graduates reflect

Since the II8lDlI individual -1IlB;f have been anrolled in and cClllplsted more than one course,
he .ould have been,
in such circumstances,

AIRCRAfT

AND EQUIPMENT

\1ben the /orJ1Jy Air Forces began its

unprecedented expanaton from ptace-time to war-t1.me str8llgth, two
problems of _teriel
managsment became most critical:
the determination of advance requirements
and the effective
distribution
of equipnent on hand.
Requirements for aircraft,
for spare parts
and for expendable
supplies had to be gauged for long periods ahead because the production cycle was as long as two years for
80IIleitems.
It was also necessary to meltenew calculations
of the usefUl life and required replacement rates
of aircraft
and equipll8nt under combat conditions abroad and under intensified
training operations in the
United States.
In order to st~
requirements end to mske the necessary forward estimates, it was JDandatC117
that a reporting system be developed to provide current, continuous data on aircraft
and equipnent on hand
and on inventCll7 gains and 1088es.
The probl8llll of effective
distribution
of equipllSnt on hand could be solved only through a s1mllar reporting qstem.
The.Ar1l\YAir Forces was initially
short of airplanes - bombers, fighters,
transports and
trainers - and had to be certain that every plane
produced was put to use as cpick1y as possible
and in the
most profitable
place end manner. Close accounting was required to provide the degree of control that had to
be attained.
The completed aircraft,
as the instrument of air power, was brought UDderthe closest possible control
with a detailed reporting system.
In the United States,
every organization with Arrr1 Air Forces
aircraft
submitted a daily inventory report (the AIIFForm 110) by teletype,
giving the number of aircraft
on hand for
each type,
model, and series,
the number in and out of Commission end flying hours.
Gains and losses of
aircraft
were reported on this form by serial number, with the designation of the organization
from which
the aircraft
were gained or to which they were lost.
These daily reports were passed through each echelon
of command to Headquarters, ArIl\Y Air Forces, in Washington, thus providing each cOllllll!Uld
headqU&I'ters with the
inforJDation it needed to control aircraft
assignment within subordinate cOlllJll&Ilds
or units.
Reporting from overseas theaters was more difficult
to organize than reporting in Continental US because
of the nature of combat operations
and less adequate cCllllllUllicationssystems.
Aircraft loss statistics
in
preliminary
farm were reported
by cable fran the theaters.
These preliminnry reports
were supported (and
cOITected, as was frequently necessary) by monthly air mail sUlIllllB.l"ies
which gave the "fum" inventory figures
end the aircraft
losses by serial IlWIlber.
In establishing
effective materiel controls,
it was recognized early that
some component parts of the
aircraft,
and lI)metypes of supply, were very nearly as critical
as the complete aircraft
itself.
Engines
and propellers were two items for which specific,
detailed reports were set up on a continuing basis.
High
octane aviation gasoline
became a highly critical
item and was the subject of several special
and periodic
reports botli in the United States and overseas.
Gasoline stocks and consumption rates per aircraft
per hour
were watched closely through the mediumof standard statistical
reports.
Not all of the hundreds of thousands of items of equipnent and supply used by the Army Air Forces could
be c overed by the type of report
used in controlling the assignment and U88 of airoraft,
engines,
gasoline
and a limited number of other _jor equipnent assemblies and supply items.
For the mass of supply items,
a
machine tabulation stock balance ledger system was organized in Headquarters,
Air Technical .service Command.
nus system covered only the United ..tates.
Like and related items were grouped in "classes"
wn reported
DlClllthly.
Because of the pat number of items,
it was necessary to stagger the complete report
over the
month, di.fereIIt "classes" of items being reported on different days. There were over 600,000 separate items
in the inventOl7,
and the vast amount of paper work involved in tabulating bin cards,
filling
in inventC117
transnillllion sheets,
then transcribing the information on punch cards and tabulating a cClllplete record, IIIIlie
this one of the most difficult
reporting probl8llllshandled by the Ar1tIy Air Forces.
In lIddition to the data on _jor items of ecpiIJll8nt and supply and the stock balance ledger sl.lllllllary, a
few tables have been included in this section as representative
of special information used for control PJrposes wi thin the Air Technical Service COIIIIland. 'lhese include data on the repair and overhaul of aircraft
eJl&ines, storage,
movements of materiel
and overseas shipllents,
all of whleh are important
functions of
ATSC. Standardized reports have been important aids in providing the required control over these activities

(Av~rage cost per airplane is the weighted average on all programs approved during a designated fiscal year
and represents the estimated cost of a complete airplane ready for flyaway, includi~g factory installed
ordnance and radio equipment. Costs exclude equipment installed at modification centers and airplane spare
parts. Unit costs reflect renegotiation of contracts only to the extent of reductions in contract prices
for future deliveries but do not reflect reductions in price effected by cash refunds.)

OPERATIONS

In the early stages or the war, 0Dly summary combat statistics

were secured from the routiDe operational
cables sent in from the different theaters or war.
Jl.S activity
increased,
it became obvious that a regula.\"
&JJd accurate method or collecting detailed combat statistics
was necessary.
Far this reason, the AAF Form 34
was originated to serve as the official
report or statistics
on every combat mission flown against the ell8lll1.
The report contained such data as the number of airplanes participating,
the number considered to have accomplished the misldon, the number which fa.Ued to complete the mission &JJd the reasons therefor,
the targets
attacked, the tons or bombs, rowxis or &IIlIIIWl1tion
and gallons or gasoline expended, the hours f'lown by airplanes participating
&JJd the losses sustained and inflicted
on enelllYaircraft.
Although the report was modified from time to time to meet changing needs, the
was essentially
similar.
Moreover, the report provided a Wlifarm set of definitions,
tistics
of combat operations could be compiled on a Wliform basis.

basic material collected

so that world-wide sta-

A1'ter consolidating the reports, each echelon of collllll&nd

was able to analyse the eftectivaneas
and collt
of its operations.
Staff planning factors were created for sorties,
flying time, bomb, ammunition, gasolinB
and other supply requirements and losses in order to compare actual experience with that planned or reasonably expected.
The follCMing table sets forth
some of the staff planning factors for B-29 a.1rplanss &JJd

LoSftS

By applying staff planning factors to planned group deployment, the AAF was able to estimate for a future period the number or sorties to be flown, tons of bombs to be dropped, airplane and crew losses &JJd the
required flow of I118nandmateriel to sustain Wlits at capacity operating levels.

Initial
attempts to plan B-29 requirements were based in part on the operating experience or heavy bomber units.
A8 experience in the operation or B-29s developed, planning factors were refined and improved by
continuing analyses of the latest operating data, and as a result the program was a sensitbe
1nd1cator of
actual requ1rellBnts.
As accurate damage asses_nt
became available, additional planning factors were devised to estimate the
rate at which AU effort might be expected to reduce the power or the enelllYto resist.
As a result,
it was
possible to program the striking power of the AAF against specific types of targets to be destroyed.
In the pages that follow, primal"',{attention has been directed towards providing basic operating
stati ..
tics.
Operating rates have been omitted for lack of space but ~
easily be derived from the data given
(e.g., the loBS rate per sortie on combat missions is the quotient resulting from'the division or the Z1IIIIber
of airplanes lost on combat missions by the number of sarties flown; the sortie rate per airplane in theater
mq be obtained by diViding the nwnber of sorties flown in a given month by the number ot airplanes on b&JJd
in the theater;
the airplane replacemtlnt flow necessary to support operations or a group would be the loss
rate per sortie multiplied by the activity rate per month per airplane multiplied by the airplane strength of
the group).
For the sake of simplification,
data covering night fighters have been combined with day fighters.
Statistics
covering troop carrier and reconnaissance
airplanes have not been included because complete data are
not available;
for example, flying time of cOlllbattype airplanes with Wlits overseas is exclusive of that of
reconnaissance types.
