History: The Douglas B-67 Destroyer II, designed as a medium to heavy attack aircraft, was designed in 1968 as a replacement for the aging B-66 Destroyer. The Destroyer II sat a crew of four: pilot, weapons officer, navigator (in the section just aft of the cockpit), and a "spotter" (who sat in the rear section of the aircraft and usually only had the purpose of spotting incoming enemy aircraft). The plane was slow for the time, only reaching speeds of anywhere between 350 and 400 miles per hour. But, it could pack a devastatingly high amount of weapons on board. In had six .50 caliber machine guns positioned in the wing roots, four hard points connected to the side of the fuselage, and five more hard points per wing (outermost ones were used for external drop tanks). On the belly of the B-67 (and all of its variants) was a radar hub and several cameras, just in case the aircraft had to fly night or reconnaissance missions. The "spotter" and navigator had ejector seats (the spotter's seat ejected downwards instead of upwards), but the pilot and weapons officer had to bail out via a hatch in between their seats (which was also the way that the crew boarded the aircraft). The B-67 served from 1971, when it was finally introduced after a year of technical problems (with the engines), until 1982 when it was pulled form active service. Exported variants included: FB-67 (RAF), V-67 (Spain), NI-67 (Sweden), and the J-67 (Canada). Five NI-67s still serve in the Swedish air forces as maritime patrol aircraft (their engines and avionics were upgraded to fit modern standards as well as being fitted with ejector seats for the pilot and weapons officer). The aircraft here served from 1972 to 1980 in the USAF before being pulled from service and displayed at several aviation museums before being scrapped.

Just remember to gimme credit! @KerlonceauxIndustries
Very nice work!
Cool! Ever since I found the name of the Destroyer, I've loved it as well. @Destroyer5713
Ok. Anyways... Cool Plane. I've always had a soft spot for the Destroyer. Hence, my name! @DestinyAviation
I like your cockpit
I made a fictional variant of it, hence "B-67". But thanks for noticing anyways! @Destroyer5713
Nice plane. It's the B-66 not B-67 btw.
Great work man! The passengers are a nice touch.
Cool!
Awesome! I'm on cooldown );
