Initially the B-29s were used in daylight bombing raids, but suffered from heavy losses due to the heavy Air Defense of the NK, and MiGs. So they switched night ops. The NK also used search lights to bracket the bombers, and to reduce the glare and reflection, the B-29s sported field applied black camo on the bellies.

 

There was a pretty good article in a recent issue of WINGS magazine.

That is looking very nice!

 

Cannot wait to escort them with my P-40 :)

they did have them during the Koran war so a p-51 all the way to a f-86 will work well.

I have Tupolev Tu-4 copy too, so you can intercept it with F-89C (D shortly), F-86, F-100 and others because they served until 1965 I think :-)
