The North American NA-40 was a bomber prototype developed for the United States Army Air Force. After the crash of the prototype, the type was cancelled and the Air Force ordered the Douglas A-20 Havoc instead. North American used the NA-40B design to develop the NA-62, which competed for the medium bomber contract and was ordered into production as the B-25. destinationsjourney.com/histor #NorthAmericanNA40 #aircraft #aviation #airplane #aeroplane #bomber #USAAF #Prototype

Swede’s Photographs

B1 Lancer

While I was quietly observing the birds, an unexpected spectacle unfolded overhead—a rare sighting of a USAF B-1 Lancer in flight. The sleek, formidable bomber sliced through the sky with a powerful presence, momentarily stealing my attention away from my feathered friends. This unexpected encounter added a thrilling twist to my bird-watching experience.

By order of the Galactic Imperial Decree, you are hereby summoned to explore my photo gallery at:

"The image showcases a B-1 Lancer, a sleek, supersonic variable-sweep wing heavy bomber used by the United States Air Force, flying overhead. Captured from below, the photo highlights the aircraft's impressive design, including its distinctive swept-back wings. The B-1 Lancer is known for its speed, payload capacity, and ability to perform long-range missions. Additionally, the image is credited to "Swede's Photographs," as noted by the text in the bottom right corner. It's an impressive sight, isn't it? The B-1 Lancer truly embodies a blend of power and elegance." - Copilot

Although the Type 94 W-18 piston engines proved unreliable during operations, which resulted in the small number built, the type provided the IJN with experience in long range operations.

First flying on 22 December 1936, the North American B-21 Dragon was a medium bomber designed for the United States Army Air Corps. Although having superior performance to it’s competitor the Douglas B-18 Bolo, it was considerably more expensive. As a result and although a small batch of evaluation aircraft were ordered, only the prototype was built. destinationsjourney.com/histor #Aviation #aeroplane #airplane #aircraft #bomber #NorthAmericanXB21 #USAAC
