Pictures found in Fortresses of the Big Triangle First by Cliff Bishop. Does anyone have information on this stateside modification in early 1943?

That's the so called "Project Reed" B-17E with the Consolidated nose and tail turrets. I posted photos of the same a/c in the thread "Photo of the day". You can find a good description with many photos in the book "B-17 in detail & scale" Part 3.
Cheers!
