    Nice find. Will be cropped & added to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_XB-43_Jetmaster Thanks for posting these!

    This appears to be the second prototype, YB-43 s/n 44-61509. Still exists per the articel, in storage at the National Museum of the United States Air Force in Dayton, Ohio. This one has the solid (orange) nose cone, replacing the clear plexiglas original which cracked. See [commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Douglas_XB-43#/media/...] for our nice color restoration.
