With his 30 metres length, 43 metres wingspan, 161 m² wing area and a maximum bomboad off 54,000 kg, this the Boeing B-29 and rightly named as the Superfortress and was a successor from the legendary B-17. The B-29 was one of the largest aircraft to see service during World War II. A very advanced bomber for this time period, it included features such as a pressurized cabin, an electronic fire-control system, and remote-controlled machine-gun turrets. Though the B-29 was designed as a high-altitude daytime bomber, in practice it actually flew more low-altitude nighttime incendiary bombing missions. It was the primary aircraft in the American firebombing campaign against the Empire of Japan in the final months of World War II, and carried out the atomic bombings that destroyed Hiroshima and Nagasaki. This is the biggest bomber and second largest aircraft used in Forgotten Hope Secret Weapon.
