Convair B-36 Peacemaker 2

Shows the long wingspan of the bomber. A sort of powered sailplane, aircraft needed four jet engines to break 400 mph. Clearly outclassed by jet fighters in late 1940's, the B-36 was kept in service because only it could carry the 42000 pound Mark 17 H-Bomb. Never used in combat, even during Korean Conflict, it made an excellent recon/spy aircraft, carrying cameras and electronic warfare equipment.
