Description
The North American B-45 Tornado is an aircraft that has been overlooked by historians. Originally designed as a bomber without a mission, it was later adapted to play a role in Tactical Air Command due to the development of smaller nuclear weapons. A variant of this aircraft, the RB-45C reconnaissance plane, played a significant part in the Korean War and undertook perilous missions over the Soviet Union. This book provides insight into the lesser-known history of the B-45 Tornado and its variants.
