TV Program: Weapons of World War II: Heavy Bombers

At the outbreak of World War II, the only heavy, four-engine bombers in the war were either Russian or American. Soon the Short Stirling, the Avro Lancaster and the Liberator were added to the B-17 Flying Fortress for devastating 1000 bomber raids over Germany. Ultimately, the pressurized B-29 gave the Americans the range and height they required in order to drop the Atomic bomb.
