What we need is a new bomb truck. Something like the old B-36. We'll probably have worn out all the B-52's by the time this war is over.

Yeah, I read where someone jokingly suggested we put a bomb bay in 747s. When you come down to it, it would work. BTW, the B-36 was a real gas hog. All those piston engines. By the time it got to Russia and back, it had room for one nuke at the best. I have walked a B-52. Boeing sure built one hell of an air frame into it.

Where we are going is unmanned planes. Another item the Air Force hates. No "Wild Blue Yonder" in them.
