B52STRATO 215 Posted October 22, 2014 P&W T-34 test bed and SB-17. I pretty like the old 44-85531 with Fulton system used in Thunderball Different aircraft, but a variant which saved many in Korea 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JediMaster 451 Posted October 22, 2014 That was for the fighter variant, the FB-17, that was cancelled when it was discovered the P-36 was better. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MigBuster 2,861 Posted October 22, 2014 Reminds me of the Junkers thing with the 3 engines Like the FB-17 concept - thou assume its being used for an engine test. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JediMaster 451 Posted October 23, 2014 Another problem with the FB-17 was the gunners falling out when they made a sharp roll. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wrench 9,429 Posted October 23, 2014 sure you're not confusing the FB17 with the YB-40 escort ship? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MigBuster 2,861 Posted October 23, 2014 No idea that designation existed - and it looks like it flew operational raids - well on wiki. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
