Historical Description and Application

The Boeing B-29 Superfortress is a famous American heavy strategic bomber, used mainly during World War II, especially in aerial operations over the Pacific. This aircraft contributed to the end of the conflict thanks to modern technological solutions such as pressurized cabins and remotely controlled turrets.
