The B-17 Flying Fortress was a legendary American heavy bomber used during World War II. It was one of the most recognizable aircraft of the conflict. The B-17 was designed as a long-range bomber aircraft, capable of carrying large amounts of bombs over considerable distances. Its distinctive feature was the use of four engines, which gave it great power and the ability to operate at high altitudes. The Flying Fortress was extremely durable and well armored, which made it more resistant to enemy attacks. It was also known for its ability to continue flying despite significant damage.
This aircraft played a key role in the bombing campaigns over Europe and the Pacific. B-17s conducted numerous strategic bombing missions, attacking enemy industrial, military and infrastructural targets. Thanks to its iconic silhouette and the courage of the B-17 crews, the Flying Fortress became a symbol of the American war effort during World War II and is still present in the memory and history of aviation.
