Photo Comment

This B-29 was delivered on August 9, 1945, and after the Second World War was assigned to the 509th Bombardment Group stationed at Roswell. After many years on display at Chanute AFB in Illinois, it became part of the collections of the Museum of Nuclear Science in 1993 and was restored in 2015.
