+MigBuster Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 View File RB-57A Canberra Martin RB-57A Canberra for the "Strike Fighters 2" Series by Ahmed Junaid Raza B.2 Cockpit with bombardier view by Daniel "Kessselbrut" Himmel Original skin and ini work by pappychksix Updated for SF2 by MiGBuster (July 2009) The USAF ordered English Electric Canberras as a need to fill a mission gap - however the order could not be fulfilled in the UK so Martin was able to license build Canberras under the B-57 designation. The B-57A looks similar to the Canberra B mk2 however there were actually many differences - not least the the Wright J65 engines. Due to the bubble canopy, targetting the guns was found to be very difficult, and so the canopy and nose were totally redesigned into what became the B-57B. The RB-57A was the first real production model of the B-57 with around 67 being built for a photo recon role. They served from 1954 and were withdrawn in the early 1970s. 24 RB-57As were also converted to EB-57As.
