EDIT: THIS WAS NOT ORIGINALLY MINE, THE AUTO CREDIT DIDN'T WORK. THE ORIGINAL MAKER WAS BLYATNOV, AS PER USUAL WITH MY BUILDS.
"The Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress is an American four-engined heavy bomber aircraft developed in the 1930s for the United States Army Air Corps (USAAC). A fast and high-flying bomber, the B-17 was used primarily in the European Theater of Operations and dropped more bombs than any other aircraft during World War II. It is the third-most produced bomber of all time, behind the American four-engined Consolidated B-24 Liberator and the German multirole, twin-engined Junkers Ju 88. The B-17 was also employed in transport, anti-submarine warfare, and search and rescue roles." - Wikipedia; https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_ B-17_Flying _Fortress
