B-52 Stratofortress
The Boeing B-52 Stratofortress is a long-range strategic bomber flown by the United States Air Force since 1952,replacing the Convair B-36 and the Boeing B-47. Although built for the role of Cold War-era nuclear deterrent, its conventional capabilities are these days the more important role in USAF operations, where its long range, heavy weapons load and fearsome reputation have proven valuable.
