Boeing VB-29 44-87755 United States Air Force

These are 1/72 scale decals for Boeing VB-29 44-87755, assigned to the 3rd Air Division, Strategic Air Command, United States Air Force.

The VB-29 was a VIP staff transport conversion of the B-29 Superfortress, with the bomb bay and offensive equipment removed in favor of passenger accommodations for senior commanders and officials. The "V" prefix designated it as a dedicated VIP transport — one of the most prestigious non-combat roles a Superfortress could hold.

The 3rd Air Division was a major SAC formation responsible for overseeing heavy bomber operations, and a VB-29 on its strength would have carried division commanders and staff across the vast distances of SAC's global operational area during the early Cold War. Flying the same airframe that had dropped the atomic bombs on Japan just years earlier, these staff transport crews operated at the very heart of America's nuclear deterrence command structure.
