North American B-45C Tornado
1940's -- More reach is given to the long striking arm of the U.S. Air Force North American B-45C Tornado four-jet bomber, a "wing tip tank" version of the B-45. The tanks pack much more range into the Tornado's normal tactical radius of over 800 miles. Black paint on inside of tanks and engine nacelles reduce glare. The sleek bombers carry a payload of over 10 tons and are in the 550 miles per hour speed class. (U.S. Air Force photo)
