When photographed at the 1993 Mildenhall Air Fete this B-52G had less than an year's active service left to complete. Operated by the 34th BS out of Castle AFB but reporting to the 366th Wing at Mountain Home. Wearing 57 'Desert Storm' mission symbols.
Formerly operated by the 96th Bomb Wing out of Dyess AFB TX this B-52D was retired to AMARC in May 1982 and was still in very good condition when photographed nearly five years later. In June 1991 she was placed on display at the Davis-Monthan AFB gate.
This RB-52B was only the 15th 'BUFF' produced. On the 21st May 1956 she dropped a 3.75 megatons Mk.15 hydrogen bomb, the first time that a B-52 had been used as a carrier and drop plane for this truly terrifying weapon.
these B-52F Stratofortresses might have taken part in the Arc Light bombing missions in Vietnam in 1965. The type was retired to MASDC in 1978 and they were clearly showing signs of weathering when photographed nine years later.
This B-52H was in the airshow static at the 1992 Air Tournament International at Boscombe Down and was named "Renegade". She was operated by the 92nd Wing out of Fairchild AFB.
