Not surprisingly, the aircraft remained a part of the US arsenal in the following years and again saw combat in Korea. The evolution of the B-29 into the B-50 is covered in this book--the second of two volumes--as is the B-50's part as an early nuclear deterrent. Not only is the production of these aircraft illustrated, so are the host of adaptations, from mother ship to X-planes to weather and refueling aircraft. This volume chronicles the design, development, and deployment of these later versions through photos gathered from around the world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Schiffer Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45037242122391,"sku":"9780764360787","price":1728.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780764360787.webp?v=1769214581","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/b-29-b-50-superfortress-vol-2-post-world-war-ii-and-korea-9780764360787","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
