Identify this Plane


You don't have to get the designation completly corre2ct. For instance if it is a MiG21F MiG21 would be a good enough answer. Winner gets a free 2 wk vacation in Costa Rica, that is if they can find someone to pay their way.

How very odd... Body looks to be that of a B29, but engines are wrong and wings not long enough. It has the gun turrets of a B29, but what's that squarish bulge amidships?

Some variant on the B29 airframe, I suppose. Subhunter or long-range weather platform.

But, it's probably something else...

It looks like a modified XB-38 with additional fuel tanks. http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_XB-38_Flying_Fortress
