The Douglas XB-19 project was intended to test flight characteristics and design techniques for giant bombers. Its construction took so long that competition for the contracts to make the XB-35 and XB-36 occurred two months before its first flight. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/douglas-xb-19/ #aviation #DouglasXB19 #aeroplane #airplane #bomber #USAAF #USAAC #USAF

OPERATION MIDNIGHT HAMMER was a significant military mission but it does not even rate in the Top 10 #American military ops that changed history.
The Doolittle Raid was far more secretive, had 1000s of Navy and #USAAF crew members directly at risk for 16 days and had greater historical impact than all of the #bombs they dropped.
Give the pilots their Air Medals but stop saying it was harder than any mission in WW2. It was not.

The North American NA-40 was a bomber prototype developed for the United States Army Air Force. After the crash of the prototype, the type was cancelled and the Air Force ordered the Douglas A-20 Havoc instead. North American used the NA-40B design to develop the NA-62, which competed for the medium bomber contract and was ordered into production as the B-25. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/north-american-na-40-bomber/ #NorthAmericanNA40 #aircraft #aviation #airplane #aeroplane #bomber #USAAF #Prototype
