 IBERIAN PENINSULA AIR INTELLIGENCE SUMMARY

Spain and Portugal are strategically important because of

the geographical r tion of the Iberi p nsuia to Gibraltar,
North Africa and ee stern NMditerranean.

Of primary significance are transportation facilities.

Railroads and highway systems form a radiating network centering
at Nadrid; main lines lead north to Bilbao, east to Barcelona,
and west to Lisbon. From Portugal six lines of low military
capacity lead into Spain. Spanish railroads connect with
French lines at four points but because of difference in gauge,
transshipment of all goods is necessary. Both railroads and
highways generally are of low traffic capacity and follow
circuitous routes through difficult mountainous terrain. Rail-
road traffic is further limited by inadequate equipment, lack
of lubricants, and inefficient personnel.

Inland water routes are of little importance. Rivers are

too rapid and irregular in flow for navigation, and canals are
limited in extent. Seaports are few in number, usually poorly
equipped, and especially on the north coast, isolated by
mountainous terrain. Barcelona, Sevilla and Lisbon are the
best ports, the latter having one of the finest natural harbors
in Europe.

Industries of Spain and Portugal contribute little to the

Axis. Some minerals are exported,however, including copper
from the Rio Tinto mine, tungsten from deposits in Portugal
and Spain, and iron ore from northeastern Spain. Industries
are concentrated at Bilbao (iron, steel, shipbuilding, munitions,
and railroad equipment) and at Barcelona (textiles, electrical
equipment, automotive machinery, and light industries).
Although the output of these industrial centers is considerable,
neither Spain nor Portugal is industrially self-sufficient.
Most exports from the Iberian countries consist of agricultural
products, including citrus fruits, olives, and cork.

This summary is based on intelligence available in the

United States. Information on Spain has been meagre and
unreliable since the Spanish Civil War.

 GEOGRAPHY

" The Iberian Peninsula is an irregular pentagon of 224, 312 sq. mi.,

680 mi. east-west by 500 mi. north-south. Of this area Spain occupies

190,058 sq. mi., and Portugal 34,254 sq. mi. Madrid (400 25' N., 03° 42'

W.) is almost exactly in the center of the peninsula. The population of

the mainland of Spain is approximately 23,000,000; of Portugal, 7,000,000.

i-he Balearic Islands lie a hundred miles off the east coast of Spain and
command the sea route between France and North Africa. The area of the

Balearic Islands is 1,935 sq. mi.; the population is 366,000.

The most striking physical characteristic of the peninsula is its

extremely broken terrain, which is the major determinant of its climate,

transportation, agriculture, habits of thought, speech, and dress, and its

economy generally. It is accurate and convenient to think of Spain as an

island, protected by its relief from invasion by land or sea. Its interior

relief divides the country into a patchwork of mutually isolated regions,

the people of which are intensely patriotic to their "little fatherland".

The rough plateau and the mountains of Spain and Portugal are closely

related to the Atlas system of Morocco. They make the peninsula a very

difficult area for military operations and must be the starting point for

any military study.

The Pyrenees-Cantabrian System forms a rampart from one end to the

other of the northern boundary of Spain. It extends for 650 miles, virtu-

ally to the water's edge along the Bay of Biscay, and it is pierced by few

and difficult passes.

South of the Pyrenees-Cantabrian System are four parallel ranges which

abut against the high, irregular mountains of the eastern escarpment of the

Castilian plateau. The most important of these ranges, strategically, are

the Guadarrama Mountains, which half encircle Madrid on the north, and the

Sierra Morena, which forms the southern boundary of the plateau. In the ex-

treme south, running from Gibraltar 300 miles east to M.urcia, is the great

wall of the Sierra Nevada, which. is virtually impenetrable except for the

few passes from the plateau of Granada that reach the Mediterranean at
S alaga, Motril, and Almeria.

The relief of the peninsula, rather than its latitude, determines the

climate. The peninsula lies in the temperate zone and receives the wet storms

brought by the prevailing westerlies. The high barriers on the north and west

coasts, however, interrupt the westerlies and cause a heavy precipitation on

the windward side of the mountains, with a corresponding drought on the lee

side. Thus the whole central plateau, which occupies two-thirds of the total

area, suffers from insufficient rainfall, except where other mountains inter-

rupt the westerly winds. The north and west coastal strips are mild, wet (40

to 60 inches of rain annually), and green. The plateau suffers from extremes

of heat and cold and perpetually from drought (10 to 20 inches of rain an-

nually). The eastern and southern coasts, including the Balearic Islands,

have a warm, dry, Mediterranean climate, with variable winds, occasional

thunderstorms and clear skies. Visibility, in fact, is good over the whole

peninsula, except on the north and northwest coast and over the mountains.

It is well to bear in mind, however, that generalizations about Spain's cli-

mate are likely to break down locally because of accidents of the terrain.

The mountains determine the river-valley systems, of which the five ma-

jor ones must be considered. South of the Pyrrenees is the low Ebro valley.

The Ebro River, the only one flowing west to east, drains the southern slope

of the Pyrenees. There is rich farm land in parts of the valley because of

this drainage, which also makes it the greatest source of hydro-electric

power in Spain.

South and west of the Ebro valley is that of the Duero, draining the

semi-arid plateau of Old Castile and Leon. In its rapid fall at the Portu-

guese border it forms another great source of hydro-electric power, as yet

only partially developed.

New Castile and Estremadura are drained by the Tagus and Guadiana systems,

which are of relatively small importance. The gorge of the Tagus, however,

is one of the major obstacles of the north-south transportation in Spain west

of Madrid.

The southernmost system, that of the Guadalquivir, is extremely valuable

for the irrigation of the rich lowlands of Andalusia. Furthermore, its delta

is navigable for vessels of 8,000 tons as far # port of Seville, some sixty

miles.

 TRANSPORTATION

The principal use to which the peninsula could be put by the enenv

would be as a corridor to Gibraltar and North Africa. Transportation -

railroads, roads, seaports, and air installations --, overshadows in im-

portance all other strategic problems.

Spain has about 38,750 miles of motor roads, reported to be in fair

condition. The system centers at Madrid, from which six main paved high-

ways lead to six strategic points on the frontiers: Irun, La Junquera,

La Coruna, Badajoz, Cadiz, Valencia.

The national highway system was planned to give the government at

Madrid control over all sections and, for the same reason, to discourage

direct communication between the provinces. Its centralized structure is

also an effect of the mountain barriers. It offers the very grave diffi-

culty to the Axis of forcing all north-south traffic through the bottle-

neck at Madrid, with only two by-passes: (1) the long, tortuous route

down the east coast, and (2) the better route through western Spain by way

of Salamanca and Merida to Seville.

Spain has about 7,500 miles of broad gauge railroads in operation,

connecting with French lines at four points. From the Axis standpoint, the

Spanish railroads have the great handicap of being of a different gauge

from the French railroads. Passengers and goods must be transshipped at

the border. To avoid the dangerous delay at Irun, where the heavy prepon-

derance of shipping is handled, the Germans have extended a Spanish gauge

spur some sixty miles toward Bordeaux.

Spanish railroads are inefficient because of incompetent personnel,

lack of fuel and lubricants, losses of rolling stock during the Civil War,

and restricted replacements. They are further handicapped by the lack of

good steam coal, normally imported from England. It is reported that trains

are having great difficulty in negotiating the heavy grades to the interior.

The railroads suffer from the same disadvantages for north-south move-

ments as the highways, having to pass through Madrid, or to use the slow de-

tour by way of the east coast, or the western route by way of Salamanca, Caceres,

and Merida. The two most heavily traveled rail and road passes from France

are at Irin and Portbou, at the west and east ends of the Pyrenees respectively.

Rail lines traverse the Pyrenees at the Somport Pass (Canfranc) and at Puig-

cerda. Military roads, negotiable except when snowbound (December to March),

cross the Pyrenees at Elizondo, Roncesvalles, Somport, Puigcerda, and La

Junquera. All these routes are auxiliary to the main ports of entry at Irun

and Portbou.

Spanish rivers are too rapid and of too unequal a flow to have much im-

portance for transportation. Exceptions are: the estuary of the Tagus at

Lisbon (100 miles); the estuary of the Mino (25 miles); the mouth of the

Guadiana (25 miles); the delta of the Guadalquivir (60 miles). Canals are

of purely local importance

The merchant fleet of Spain, 1,200,000 tons, is inadequate for domestic

needs. Prior to the Civil War seventy per cent of Spanish shipping was car-

ried in foreign bottoms.

A glance at the topographical map will make clear the reason for Spain's

poverty in seaports. Galicia, the northwestern province, with potentially

the finest harbors in the country, has only one outlet to the interior through

the mountains. The coast of the Bay of Biscay is bordered by the Cantabrian

Mountains, and its harbors are little used except for the busy stretch between

Santander and east to Pasajes. The Mediterranean coast has several good har-

bors, but the only one of major importance is Barcelona, in peace time one of

the busiest in the Mediterranean. The rest of the east coast is cut off from

the interior as effectively as are the north and west coasts. The south of

Spain has almost no adequate ports. The major one is Seville, 60 miles up

the Guadalquivir River; even this port is shallow and subject to flood and

silting.

The coast of Portugal has the best natural harbor in Europe, the estuary

of the Tagus, which makes Lisbon the economic heart of the country.

INDUSTRY AND NATURAL RESOURCES

Spain is an agricultural country and a producer of raw materials, princi-

pally sub-tropical fruits, olive oil, wines, and minerals (copper, iron, and

mercury). Spain smelts and processes only enough minerals for her own con-

sumption, a small percentage of the total mined. Virtually all exports now

go to the Axis.

The two important industrial districts are Bilbao, (iron, steel, ship-

building, arms, light and heavy industries, railway equipment), and Barcelona

(textiles, farm and automotive machinery, electrical appliances, and light

industry generally). The industries of Spain do not supply national needs,

except in textiles.

Spain is of value to the Axis as a source of minerals. The copper mines

of Rio Tinto are among the richest in Europe. Prior to the war, copper pro-

duction amounted to approximately 3,500,000 metric tons of ore, 90% of which

was shipped to England for processing; the estimated output for 1942 is ap-

proximately 1,000,000 metric tons. Iron is found in great abundance; pro-

duction prior to the war was approximately 2,500,000 metric tons of ore, of

which 80% was shipped abroad. The principal iron mining districts are:

Bilbao, Solares, Asturias, Lugo, Huelva, Almeria. The richest mercury mine

in the world is at Almaden; the total production in Spain is approximately

1,500 metric tons of refined mercury. Zinc production amounts to 10,000

metric tons; lead, 90,000 metric tons. Tin, wolfram, cobalt, niclel, bis-

muth, antimony, gold and silver are mined, but in unimportant quantities.

The peninsula does not produce sufficient fuel for domestic needs and

what it does produce is of mediocre quality. There is no petroleum in Spain

or Portugal. Prior to the war Spain produced approximately 600,000 metric

tons of bituminous, 300,000 metric tons of anthracite, 400,000 metric tons

of lignite.

Munitions, while produced in several places, are not known to be pro-

duced in any significant quantities, and aircraft, if produced at all, are

either obsolete types~nriners.

 ELECTRIC POWER

The total electrical output of Spain is approxi-

mately 1,800,000 H. P. (1,350,000 K. i.) the greatest

part hydro-electric; the potential output, 5,000,000

H. P.; the undeveloped reserve: 10,000,000 H. P. The

principal use of electric power is in the textile in-

dustry around Barcelona. Most units are limited to

supplying local needs for lighting, irrigation and

streetcars. Four short but important stretches of

railroad are electrified; between Oviedo and Leon over

the Cantabrians; between Irun and Vitoria; between Jaca

and Canfranc (Somport Pass); and between Vich and the

Puigcerda Pass.

AIRPORTS AND LANDING FIELDS

Spain is reported to have a large number of airports

and landing fields, most of which were established during

the Civil tar and deteriorated rapidly thereafter. Some

reconditioning was begun in 1940 but there is no evidence

of much improvement.

Concentrations of air facilities occur around Madrid,

Lisbon, Barcelona, Gartagena, and south of Seville toward

Gibralter.
