Boeing B-47 Stratojet - an American long range, six-engine, turbojet-powered strategic bomber designed to fly at high subsonic speed and at high altitude to avoid enemy interceptor aircraft. The B-47s primary mission was to drop nuclear bombs on the Soviet Union. With its engines carried in nacelles under the swept wing, the B-47 was a major innovation in post-World War II combat jet design, and contributed to the development of modern jet airliners. The B-47 entered service with the United States Air Forces Strategic Air Command SAC in 1951.
Durchgehend farbig illustriert sowie einige Risszeichnungen.
Sehr schönes Buch mit vielen vielen Bildern.
