Here's a few shots of it at a museum that shall remain nameless for now.

North American Aviation B-45 Tornado....... Part of a 3 jet bomber competion in 1946 involving Martin, NAA and Convair.

It was replaced by the Boeing B-47. (I think)

Close enough SADT. This is an example of the RB-45C variant.

Looking at the pictures, I even know what museum that is, as I have a membership with it and my future Father-in Law is a volunteer working on the B-17 there. My fiancee also worked on it when they first brought it in there.

And a very nice museum it is. This must be the B-17G that your fiancee and her father worked on. It was very impressive. I think I'll start another thread of "name this museum." What do you think?
