Information

The Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress is a four-engine heavy bomber that was extensively employed by the United States Army Air Forces during World War II. It was produced in large numbers and saw widespread use, particularly by the 8th Air Force, for daytime strategic bombing missions over the European front, often with the support of long-range fighter escorts.

The F variant marked a significant advancement over earlier models. The Boeing B-17F featured extended operational range, the ability to carry a substantial offensive payload, and enhanced defensive armament consisting of ten .50 caliber machine guns. One of the most appreciated features among flight crews was the B-17#s remarkable ability to return to base despite sustaining heavy structural damage from enemy fire.
