## About This Content
The Boeing B-47™ was the first swept-wing multi-engine bomber in service with
the USAF. It was truly a quantum leap in aviation history, and is the
forerunner of numerous jet aircraft types in service today. As early as 1943,
Boeing™ engineers had envisaged a jet bomber, but were unable to overcome
issues with the straight wings of the day. However, Boeing aero-engineer
George Schairer uncovered some secret wind-tunnel data on swept-wing jet
airplanes. He sent the information back to the United States, where engineers
then used the Boeing High-Speed Wind Tunnel to develop the XB-47™, which
featured swept-back wings. The B-47™ broke a number of records and proved to
be a great strategic deterrent during the Cold War era. The B-47E™ is an
advanced version of the original XB-47, with much more powerful J-47™ engines.
A grand total of 2,032 of these aircraft were built, with the last one rolling
out in 1956.
