US Bomber Projects #02

"US Bomber Projects" is a series of short magazines or booklets covering eight or so designs of unbuilt American bombardment aircraft per issue. These are all "real" designs, put forward by major aerospace corporations or government design bureaus; nothing here is science fictional or fantasy... though some may certainly seem like it.



The designs in each issue will be unrelated to each other, but there will be “arcs” through the issues. The development of the B-48, B-52 and B-59, for example, are covered from the earliest issues. All designs are presented with descriptive text, data and diagrams created specifically for US Bomber Projects.



US Bomber Projects #02 contains information and diagrams on:



* Rockwell D 645-1: LH2:: A variant of the low-cost missile carrier using liquid hydrogen for fuel

* NAA High Performance Penetrator: a 1963 design for a supersonic bomber, led in part to the B-1

* Boeing Model 701-273-1: Second in a series on the evolution of the XB-59

* Lockheed GL-232: A subsonic nuclear powered bomber

* Boeing Space Sortie: A small unmanned spaceplane

* Martin Model 223-2: Second in the series on the development of the XB-48 – a wartime turbojet powered medium bomber

* Boeing Model 461: Second in the series on the development of the B-52… an early postwar turboprop heavy bomber

* Northrop Low Altitude Penetrator: A competing idea for what became the B-2
