Convair B-36 Bomber Aircraft

The Tupolev Tu-4 (NATO reporting name: Bull) was a piston-engined Soviet strategic bomber which served the Soviet Air Force from the late 1940s to mid 1960s. It was a reverse-engineered copy of the U.S.-made   more...Boeing B-29 Superfortress.
Stalin ordered Tupolev and his design bureau to copy the B-29s down to their smallest details, and produce a design ready for quantity production as soon as possible. Tupolev duly copied the B-29s bolt-by-bolt where possible, reverse engineering the design where necessary.

The Soviets used a different engine, the Shvetsov ASh-73, which had some parts in common with the Superfortress' Wright R-3350 but was not identical. The remote-controlled gun turrets were also redesigned to accommodate Soviet 23mm cannon.  less

B24

The Consolidated B-24 Liberator was an American heavy bomber, built by Consolidated Aircraft. It was produced in greater numbers than any other American combat aircraft of World War II and still holds   more...the record as the most produced U.S. military aircraft. It was used by many Allied air forces and every U.S. branch of service during the war, attaining a distinguished war record with its operations in the northern European, Pacific and Mediterranean theaters.

Often compared to the better known B-17 Flying Fortress, the B-24 was a more modern design with a higher top speed and greater range yet it had a similar bomb load and defensive armament. Nevertheless, popular opinion among aircrews and general staff tended to favor the B-17's rugged qualities above all other considerations. The B-24 was notorious among American air crews for its tendency to catch fire. The placement of the B-24's fuel tanks throughout the upper fuselage and its lightweight construction, designed both to increase range and optimize assembly line production, made the aircraft vulnerable to battle damage.The B-24 was more difficult to fly as well, with heavy control forces and poor formation flying characteristics. The B-24 nevertheless provided excellent service in a variety of roles thanks to its large payload and long range.  less

Incredible the amount of bombs this plane can carry.

An airshow warbird favourite, the NA B25 Mitchell WW2 bomber - one example that has been restored to flight. Here we see a re-enactment of its mission with the Norden bombsight living up to the 'pickle   more...barrel' accuracy that was theoretically possible if not always when in combat.  less

First flown on 06/05/1941, the P-47 was designed as a high-performance fighter/bomber. In the entire history of military aviation, there has never been an airplane that could match the P-47 Thunderbolt   more...for ruggedness and dependability. The pilots nicknamed it "The Unbreakable", P-47's often came back from combat shot full of holes, their wings and control surfaces in tatters.  less

The B-1A was developed in the 1970s as a replacement for the B-52, holding 43 world records for speed, payload, range, and rate of climb.
