B-52
« on: September 25, 2007, 06:17:03 am »
The B-52 first entered service in June 1955, now only 2 versions remain in service with its successor, ACC. A total of 193 J57 powered B-52G were built with integral wing tanks and short fin, and armed with four 0.50-in machine guns. In desert Storm, all missions were assigned to the G model, operating as free-fall bombers. The B-52G is well protected by numerous ECM systems, and 2 under nose 'blisters' house LLLTV and FLIR sensors - used with the terrain avoidance radar to provide low-level penetration capability. Some B-52 were used in many aircraft testing as motherships to carry them up to testing altitude, such as the X-15 program.d

Although the B-52A was the first production variant, the aircraft were used only in testing. The first operational version was the B-52B. ang ganda talaga nitong aircraft The official name Stratofortress was rarely used, and personnel involved with the aircraft most commonly referred to it as BUFF (Big Ugly Fat Fucker).

Its superior performance at high subsonic speeds and relatively low operating costs have kept the B-52 in service despite proposals to replace it with the Mach 3 XB-70 Valkyrie, supersonic B-1B Lancer, and stealth B-2 Spirit.

kaya.. sana meron din tayo dito kahit sampu lang!!

My good ness I love this pic. B52 is armed to the teeth and ready for action. Siguro kaya nito durugin lht ng Abusayaf at NPA sa bundok  laffman::

Parang the matrix punong puno ng baril sa buong part ng katawan.
