The enormous B-36 was originally designed to bomb Nazi Germany from Newfoundland if necessary. Four auxiliary jet engines were added to the production aircraft which, though still slow, fulfilled an important role until the advent of the B-52.

Although not very succesful, the Tornado was America's first operational jet bomber. This is one of only three surviving B-45s.

The B-23 Dragon was a much-improved variant of the B-18 Bolo. The last 38 B-18s on order were built as Dragons in 1939-40, but never used in combat. This one saw use as a UC-67 transport.

A very attractive recent restoration. I have written to the Museum to try to obtain the real identity, as the one displayed is probably false, but without a reply. It is ex Danish Air Force F-977 and thus 51-5977
