B244 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. |
