B-66B Destroyer

Recommended Posts

B-66B Destroyer


The B-66B was developed strictly as a tactical bomber and was the last bomber of this type procured by the USAF. The -B model was based on the RB-66A which was in turn adapted from the US Navy A3D Skywarrior. The B-66B made its first flight on 4 January 1955, about 6 months after the initial flight of the RB-66A. The USAF received its first production aircraft in March 1956 and deliveries continued into 1958.

 

The B-66B was the first USAF bomber designed with in-flight refueling (IFR) capability, although many (numerically) earlier bombers were fitted with IFR equipment as a retrofit modification or on later models in the development cycle.

 

A total of 62 B-66B bombers were built. Many -B models were converted to electronic warfare aircraft after their usefulness as bombers was complete. Many of these aircraft, designated as EB-66B or EB-66E, served in Sotheast Asia during the Vietnam war.

 

Skins included with the aircraft:

 

Air Force Flight Test Center ? 1955

84th Bomb Squadron, 47th Bomb Wing ? 1960

85th Bomb Squadron, 47th Bomb Wing - 1960

86th Bomb Squadron, 47th Bomb Wing - 1960

I have the fix for it...also I'm updating the skins so they have new, individual serial and buzz numbers. 84th BS is nearly done, just having a small decal issue on the nose...as in too many for the mesh.

 

I'll post the bomb bay fix in "Loadouts Thread" over in the Knowledge Base later today.
