Summary
[edit]DescriptionUnited States Air Force - B-57B Canberra (bomber) 2 (48105379653).jpg |
(South Dakota Air & Space Museum collection, Ellsworth Air Force Base, Rapid City, South Dakota, USA) This plane is also known as the EB-57B. From exhibit signage: EB-57B Canberra Top Speed - 610 miles per hour Crew - 2 Range - Continental Payload - Electronic transmitters and jammers The Friendly Enemy During the Cold War, this plane pretended to be the enemy. its bomb bay held electronics that made it appear on radar like a Soviet bomber trying to sneak into United States airspace. An electronic warfare officer in the back seat jammed signals and dropped chaff to disguise its position. On training missions, Air Force or Air National Guard radar operators and interceptor pilots practiced locating this "friendly enemy". Why is it named after the capital of Australia? A British company, English Electric, designed the Canberra as a light bomber, and sold versions around the world. They named the plane in honor of their first export customer: Australia. In America, B-57s were built under license by the Glenn L. Martin Company. Americans had their own nickname for it: the "Cranberry".
