    @ILikeThisGameLol32 Yes, B-52 is the Stratofortress, but the B-50 was an upgraded version of the Superfortress.

    @VegetarianVeteran it's the cockpit from a Boeing B-29 "Stratofortress" which eventually got upgraded to the B-50 "Stratofortress"

    The Soviet Union copied the plane. Their version is called the Tupolev Tu-4 "Bull"

    @BomberBoy2 Im glad someone found a use for it. Obviously it's way out of date now that we have smoothing and hollow parts, but it sure took me forever to figure out how to make it

    @MrShenanigans Sure, no need to give credit. This is a very outdated design tho, with hollow fuselage blocks someone could make this with fewer parts.

    You cannot believe how useful this to me, I was literally going crazy trying to make a Glass nose cockpit and thanks to this my sanity has not gone out the window, so thank you

    Im on iOS so this is all witchcraft to me. Im almost done with the fuselage re build, but thanks for the kind offer!

    @GhostHTX No need. I can scale the whole thing to any diameter you need. Finetuner allows you to grow and shrink any assembly and as long as you scale X,Y,Z evenly. If you don't scale it evenly, the results are a hilarious disaster.

    Sometimes I slightly shrink a copy of the cockpit to fit inside itself, making the interior a different color than the exterior.

    Anyway, let me know what you need and I can get it to you.

    B-50. Rodger that. The only caveat with this is that I had the fuselage built already at 5 units wide. This nose requires a re think and a wider fuselage, but it is really too good to pass up. @F104Deathtrap
