The Long Reach: The B-29 Superfortress

B-29 Superfortress diecast model

The Superfortress was a generation ahead of its time — and at the center of some of the most consequential moments of the twentieth century.

The Aircraft

The B-29 was a leap. A pressurized cabin let crews fly higher and in greater comfort than any bomber before it; remote-controlled gun turrets and an analog fire-control system pointed toward the future of aviation. Its range was enormous, its systems complex, and bringing it into service was itself one of the largest engineering efforts of the era.

The History

The Superfortress flew at a decisive and sobering moment in history, including missions whose consequences the world still reflects on. We present this aircraft as part of that history — with respect for the airmen who flew it, for the ground crews who maintained it, and for all those affected. We honor service and engineering; we do not glorify war.
