Airbus thinks to a B-52 substitute
Munich, Germany - A statement of Airbus president
Airbus president Noel Forgeard declared to the german weekly magazine Focus that the consortium is thinking to project a B-52 competitor. Indeed, the eight engined bomber B-52, that is the Boeing "Stratofortress", has been built in the fifties and submitted to many updatings, but few countries may bear expenses to maintain such type of aircraft.
