The Boeing B-52 is one of the most famous - if not "the" most famous - bomber in the world. The huge eight-engine aircraft was created in the years after World War 2, when the arms race between East and West began. The aircraft, which made unprecedented dimensions and performance a reality, became synonymous with the Cold War and has since been in service in a wide variety of operational scenarios and mission profiles up to the present day. The success story of this aircraft, which is still active today, is presented in this book in fascinating and incomparably detailed pictures and texts.
