The two NB-52s went on to launch the X-15A-2, Northrop HL-10, Northrop M2-F2, and Martin-Marietta X-24A. The NB-52A retired in October 1969, but the NB-52B soldiered on until November 2004, launching a wide variety of unmanned research vehicles and parachute test devices. The appearance of the NB-52s changed many times over the years. These changes are illustrated in this document. There are fourten sets of illustrations for the NB-52A and eighteen sets of illustrations for the NB-52B. The Stratofortress motherships are popular subjects for modelers. Their special missions capture the imagination. The liberal application of DayGlo orange, DayGlo red, and yellow makes them a couple of the most colorful B-52s. This document will help modelers to reproduce the correct appearance of either Stratofortress for any particular mission.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brian Lockett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brian Lockett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/11\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 98\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.07h x 8.56w x 0.28d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780578031101\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brian Lockett","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40053672116339,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":48.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_7161e173-8ea4-40d1-ab8f-b44d9de70dfd.jpg?v=1651324667","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/painting-guide-for-the-boeing-stratofortress-motherships-9780578031101","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
