Air "Rifle" - The first production model of the Boeing B52 jet bomber, described by an Air Force general as the "long rifle of the air age," is shown here as it was rolled from the Boeing Airplane Co. plant yesterday. Gen. Nathan P. Twining, Air Force chief of staff here for the unveiling, told Boeing workers the eight-engined swept wing bomber is the weapon that is "going to keep that red fellow in his place." An disclosed number of the bombers will be built here for the Air Force. Two experiment models were built and tested here previously. May 19, 1954. (Photo by AP Wirephoto).
