Cold War-P-2 Neptune
The B-52 Stratofortress is on it's way! Just a little longer.
This is the P-2 Neptune, it's first flight was in 1945 but was officially introduced into the USAF in 1947, making eligible for my Cold War Mega Build. So yeah, also has details like the USAF inscribed into the side of the plane.
Instructions:
-Activate 2 to drop both bombs at the same time
From Wikipedia:
The Lockheed P-2 Neptune (designated P2V by the United States Navy prior to September 1962) was a Maritime patrol and anti-submarine warfare (ASW) aircraft. It was developed for the US Navy by Lockheed to replace the Lockheed PV-1 Ventura and PV-2 Harpoon, and being replaced in turn with the Lockheed P-3 Orion. Designed as a land-based aircraft, the Neptune never made a carrier landing, although a small number of aircraft were converted and deployed as carrier launched stop-gap nuclear bombers which would have to ditch or recover at land bases. The type was successful in export and saw service with several armed forces.
