By the 21st century, it was in its fifth decade of operational service. Originally designed as an intercontinental high-altitude nuclear bomber, the B-52 was adapted to meet changing defense needs. B-52s are capable of low-level flight, conventional bombing, extended-range flights, and missile launches hundreds of miles from targets. A total of 744 B-52s were built in all versions between 1952 and 1962. No other bomber in U.S. Military history has remained operational as long as the B-52.BI211550 (p15157)Maximum size:5100px × 3950px (~57 MB)17.0in × 13.1in (300dpi)License type:Rights ManagedKeywords:1950s-airfields-airplanes-audiences-B-52 Stratofortress (Model 464)-bombers-copy space-day-exteriors-full body views-ground crews-ground shots-haze-jets-large-left side views-military-military livery-monoplanes-out of production-perspective lines-photos-several/groups-tarmac-towing-unpainted-viewed from aboveRelated Photo/Videos:View All
