I think the bomber is the YB66. It looks like a B52 and B36 hybrid. Laughing The nose is that of a B36 and the rest is B52. Just a guess.

I've never seen this one before. No idea. Guessed it is the XB-52 because of the engines.

CAG,

I picked the XB-36 because it does have the B-36 nose, but the wings look like a B-52. Are you sure this isnt a photoshopped picture!?!?! Laughing

Hhmmm... let me see, there's something strange in that pic...

That plane is until too like the B-36, but got eight jet engines, not props like the B-36 I remember, so it had to be an experimental version of a next type of bomber... the idea of the B-52 was already on the air, at those times...

So I think it's a XB-60.

It was a real plane, Air Force wanted a back-up design in case the B-52 was a disaster, so a little bit of this and a little bit of that lol

You dont have to disqualify yourself simply becasue you know the answer! You can simply vote, and then remain silent on your opinion! Very Happy
