USAF Jet Bombers

The US has the largest and most powerful air force in the world – and a large portion of that strength is its strategic bomber fleet. The USAF has operated a range of jet bombers from the B-45 Tornado in 1948 right up to the B-1s, B-2s and B-52s of the present day. Author David Baker explores the history of America’s jet bomber fleet and looks in detail at every type that has seen operational service in defence of the free world.
