    Identification help please...what is this?

    Hi. Newbie here. Have had this glass bubble for the past 20+ years. A vet once told me he believed it was a light cover from a WWII bomber. There are no attachment doohickies or other elements that would seem to allow this to "lock" into place or screw in somewhere. Metal rim feels like...

    HMGs firing shells?

    Fairly spread among Axis nations was the practice of producing and using exploding ammo for their heavy machine guns. Did it really improved the firepower of a fighter or bomber (vs. the usual ammo used), to justify the investments? Granted, in most cases the 20 mm stuff will not fit where an...

    The Long-Range Strike Bomber winner is - NORTHROP!

    So let's see if this is the new punching bag for the press! I worked on the B-2 AV3 - 7 and wish Northop and its employees all the best. I always felt Northrop got screwed over by the premature B-2 cancellation. Air Force picks Northrop Grumman to build next big bomber - Yahoo News

    Henschel Hs 124 as a light bomber

    Looking at the Hs 124 as light bomber, it looks like with either DB605s, 603s, or BMW 801s it would be as good an option as the Me410 in terms of a light bomber. Does anyone have any idea what it would have been with even the Db601 engines? It looks like it would have been a solid...
