B-36D

    Originally ordered as B-36B-20-CF Peacemaker 44-92097, this a/c was completed as the third of four B-36D-1-CF Peacemakers. Otherwise similar to the B-36B, the 81 D Models featured the addition of four GE J47-GE-19 turbojets to increase thrust and decrease the long take off roll of the earlier models.

    Republic XF-84E-15-RE (YF-96A) Thunderstreak 49-2430 under test as a parasite fighter (FICON = "Fighter Conveyor") with GRB-36F-1-CF Peacemaker 49-2707 (later re-re-designated as JRB-36F). Pilots were Maj Clyde Good and Lt Col Clarence E. "Bud" Anderson (WWII ace in "Old Crow" Mustangs). The Thunderstreak is now at the NMUSAF in the R&D section.

    wow! imagine sitting in this little fighter for the hours necessary to reach the target. And then what? What a seemingly crazy concept! But, i still am mesmerized by the B-36.

    He could actually climb in & out of the cockpit while it was retracted into the bomb bay, so the idea was to climb in just before launch (which could be completed in about 1.5 minutes). Getting back aboard under wartime conditions was another matter, however... www.flickr.com/photos/sdasmarchives/16254344504/in/photos...
