KB-29P Refueling B-50D in Flight

An entirely new career began for the B-29 Superfortress when the Strategic Air Command decided to use aerial refueling to extend the range of bombers and fighters rather than ordering new, longer range bombers. In 1950, KB-29P tankers equipped with the revolutionary Boeing-designed flying boom refueling system, began operation.
