Transportation and Weapons: The B-29 Superfortress

Transportation and weapons became very important for the various wars that the United States participated in the 1900s. The aircraft was one of the most important inventions of the 20th century. To be able to fly from one place to another is a new way of life for the US military. In World War II, military aircraft were an important part of war, but without it, not much happened. In the US-Japan relationship, a more powerful aircraft is needed. The plane they needed was called B - 29 Super Fortress.

B-29 "Super Fortress" - an American heavy bomber used during high altitude flight between World War II and Korean War designed by Boeing. Superfootless is mainly used in the Pacific Theater which requires a sufficient distance range, and it has a pressurizing body that can fly at a higher altitude while avoiding air defense and enemy aircraft. Super Fortress threw an atom bomb in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. "Big Weekly" - Allied Army Attack during World War II, code name ARGUMENT attacked German aircraft manufacturers and other strategic goals, roughly 3,000 bombs from the US 8th Air Force, 15th Air Force I projected 500 bombs. From 20th to 25th February 1944, Americans lost 250 bombers that were shot down or murdered but enemies had at least 100 experienced fighter pilots and 350 German fighters I was more strongly aware of the fact that it was shot down.

With the arrival of the huge Convair B-36, the B-29 was reclassified as a medium bomber by the Air Force. However, the later variant of B-50 Super Fortress (originally called B-29D) deals with supplementary roles such as aerial and marine rescue, electronic information gathering, air-to-air refueling and weather reconnaissance It was enough. In the early 1950s, B-50D was replaced with Boeing B-47 Stratjet as the hero, Boeing B-47 Stratjet replaced Boeing B-52 Stratford. The final active KB - 50 and WB - 50 mutants were phased out in the mid - 1960 's and the last example was retired in 1965. A total of 3,970 B-29s were built

The Boeing B-29 Super Fortress was a propeller-led heavy bomber of four engines designed by Boeing, mainly flew by the United States during the Second World War and the Korean War. It was one of the biggest aircraft that operated with state-of-the-art technology during the Second World War. Over 3 billion dollars including design and production, it exceeds the planned $ 1.9 billion cost of Manhattan - using the value of 1945 dollars, in the most expensive single arm project in World War II did. Introduced technological innovation includes a simulated computerized fire fighting system that instructs four remote machine gun turrets that can be operated by pressurized cabin, motorcycle, tricycle landing gear, and shooter and fireman Yes. Installation of manned tail gun is semi remote control. The name "Superfortress" takes over the pattern Boeing began with its famous predecessor B-17 Flying Fortress.
