Academy 1/144 Boeing B-47B or B-47E Stratojet - SAC 320 BW 441BS or 306 BW 1951, 4443 plastic model kit

1/144 4443 Academy Boeing B-47B or B-47E Stratojet - SAC 320 BW 441BS or 306 BW 1951

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Sealed NM

Still factory sealed. Very nicely molded kit featuring optional parts for B or E variants, all fine recessed panel lines, good cockpit and gear well detail, full landing gear, wing drop tanks and decals for two different aircraft. The B-47 was a very advanced aircraft at the time. The XB-47 first flew in 1947. The big jet's speed was equal to or greater than all current fighter aircraft, so it received radar-controlled twin 20mm cannons in the tail as the only guns. Through the use mid-air refueling, the B-47 gave SAC it's first all-jet force for nuclear or regular bomb delivery. Although it was tricky to fly, Stratojets flew into the mid 1960s. A program to strengthen the wings for low-level attack was responsible for prolonging the service life.
