War Planes: 90,000 in 1942, 125,000 in 1943 (Persian-language poster with Roosevelt)
A red V frames a portrait of Roosevelt beneath a blue wedge of hundreds of bomber silhouettes, with Persian text promising 90,000 warplanes in 1942 and 125,000 in 1943. Only production targets are given, with no losses or costs (card-stacking), and the president's printed signature stands as the guarantee (testimonial).
