Interesting, B-52 could potentially be in service until at least 2050
Considering the first flight was *in* 1952
And the current models being used were made in the 1960s
yea but the modern B52's have nothing in common with the original 1952 ones
I'm... not saying they do?
The last one rolled off the assembly line around 1962
And they're looking to keep them flying, in service, until 2050 👌
no but its like saying the porsche 911 has been in use since 1963, yes its been used that long but with major alterations
they've been very heavily retrofitted
even the wings and engines are changed
Tf
eh, not really. 911s are still rolling off the assembly line today. If someone showed me a Ford Model T still trundling around, even with new wheels and even an entirely new engine block, I'd still be pretty chuffed about that
I mean the whole point of trying to keep it in service is via modernising them again
yes but a 2018 911 shares nothing in common whatsoever with a 1963 911
presumably because it's still more cost-eff
yes, that's the point
anyway
presumably because it's still most cost effective than replacing the B-52 with a new model
mostly because its cheaper than designing a new plane
yeah, pretty impressive
Is that a Superfortress ?
yup
Fucking sick bro
I wonder if it has upgraded gps
