Description

The Northrop YB-49 was a prototype jet-powered flying wing medium bomber aircraft developed by Northrop for the United States Air Force shortly after World War II.

It was a development of the piston-engined YB-35, and the two YB-49s that were actually built were both converted YB-35 test aircraft. The aircraft was never to enter production, however, being passed over in favor of the more conventional Convair B-36 in service.

This handcrafted and handpainted wooden model is signed by USAF Brigadier General Robert L. (Bob) Cardenas.

Details:
  • Scale: 1/100 scale model
  • Wing Span: 21"
  • Length: 6"
