B254 USAF Strategic Bombers
This poster shows all nine of the USAF strategic
bombers. All but the B-2 were flown by the Strategic
Air Command. Although the Cold War has long
been over and SAC disbanded, three of these
aircraft (the B-1, B-2, and B-52) are still protecting
us from our enemies.
SAC’s mission included strategic reconnaissance,
and many bombers were modified to perform it. The
famous SR-71 Blackbird was built for that purpose
and was flown by SAC, so it is included.

Perspective Presentation
|
Aircraft are usually shown in profile, as the images are
relatively easy to prepare and are more compact. This
permits more to be shown in limited space. The P-38
Lighting had twin booms, and the B-47 Stratojet
introduced swept back wings and nacelle hung engines, the
design used by almost all future airliners. These important
body and wing designs cannot be shown in profile views.
To overcome this, Feenixx introduces an exciting new
approach to aircraft presentation. Each military aircraft
title focuses on a specific subject, and shows all of the
appropriate aircraft. They are presented in perspective, all
from the same low angle using the same directional lighting.
They are also sized to the same scale. When superimposed
over a common sky background, it creates the illusion that
they are flying overhead in formation. This makes it very
easy to visually compare their size and design.
These posters also contain a highly detailed chart citing
the specifications and performance characteristics of each
aircraft, making them easy to compare. |
