Boeing B-52 Stratofortress - Death from above

Well, dangerous to it's aircrews anyway! I love the BUFF, but it wouldn't make it far against modern anti-air defenses, not without extra-heavy ECM defense and Wild Weasel escorts. There are more precise ways to drop a bomb, but if you need to take out a 1/2 mile piece of land, the B-52 is the plane! Actually, that's not true either. A B-1B can carry twice the bomb-load of the 52, and go faster while doing it. But the B-52 is still the cooler airplane, if ya ask me. I love how they sound.

we shouldn't be fighting against another country we should fight when aliens come who wanted war

you are insane.

Does the Term "Cluster _uck come to Mind?
I wonder where it originated...

me am old vietcong...seeing this bring back many bad memories......

ahhh that's some funny shit mrgeneralpinochet..

The penultimate Jet bomber. Ancient in every form of the word, but too effective to put out of service. Came close to the F-14 fate >.>
It's speed, range, and abilities are easily matched by a number of other aircraft, but none other has such an outstanding combat record or fear factor than the good ol BUFF.

It went from a machine of no return in vietnam, to a hell raiser in iraq. And who knows what in the future.

OH YEAH.

Me too...I remember watching them when I was a kid from shore. As an adult, I'd park my boat at the end of the runway and lay back and watch them fly over and blow us around. Those were the days...

good video the b52 old but still effective since vietnam and the cold war.you probably saw the movie dr strangelove.its very impresive see this beauty in action.congratulations
