The B-29 had many new features, including guns that could be fired by remote control. The crew areas were pressurized and connected by a long tube over the bomb bays. The tail gunner had a separate pressurized area that could only be left during unpressurized flight. The B-29 was also the heaviest production plane because of increases in range, bomb load and defensive requirements.BI218878 (bw24041)Maximum size:6189px × 4947px (~87 MB)20.6in × 16.4in (300dpi)License type:Rights ManagedKeywords:1940s-adults-airplanes-B-29 Superfortress (Model 345)-body join-Boeing Wichita Plant-bombers-factories-factory workers-full body views-fuselages-grid patterns-ground shots-historic production status-interiors-large-lifting-manufacturing-military-monoplanes-photos-propeller planes-right front views-several/groups-stairs, lifts and ladders-structural systems-unpainted-viewed from above-working togetherRelated Photo/Videos:View All
