Photo Comment

One of the few good photographs available of the B-60, ordered originally as a B-36 Peacemaker variant. Only the first prototype was flown, 20 times by Convair from 18 April 1952 and just four times by the US Air Force in January 1953. It is seen here over Kramer Junction near Edwards AFB. The USAF cancelled the B-60 already in August 1952 as the B-52 was way superior. Photo from: US Air Force
