[QUOTE="Big Babooba, post: 431956, member: 5402"] Like Scratch said it was the B52 which first entered service in the mid 1950s. Tail gunners on BUFFs sat in the tail except for the G and H models where they fired the guns remotely from the crew compartment. Two B52 tail gunners were credited with kills during the Vietnam War. Actually the tail guns were eliminated in 1991, 19 years after the first BUFF was shot down by a SAM in 1972. [/QUOTE]
