...BATTLE: The Communists held back their big air force from Quemoy-Matsu, but flew out over the Formosa Strait. Result: bitter dogfights between Red MIG-17s and slower Nationalist F-86 Sabres. The MIGs have a capability of 60,000 ft. and 635 knots with afterburner. The Sabres have a top altitude of 48,000 ft. and speed of 600 knots. Yet the Nationalists routed the MIGs.
