The B-52 Stratofortress is a long-range strategic bomber designed and developed by Boeing. The United States Air Force (USAF) and NASA have primarily operated the aircraft since its early days.

The B-52 Stratofortress can carry up to 70,000 pounds of ordinance, surpassing other US bombers. Originally equipped with a defensive cannon, B-52s were later modified to carry cruise missiles.

The B-52 may be nearly eighty years old, but the bomber continues to support the U.S. nuclear deterrence apparatus.
