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.Pictures found in Fortresses of the Big Triangle First by Cliff Bishop. Does anyone have information on this stateside modification in early 1943?
Yep, but for sure less than on this monster:A while ago I did some measurements on a 1:48 B-17 and -24 I was trashing......a lot of work at the nose join
Thanks, I was wondering about the tail turretA couple of shots found via the net...
