Husky 1,000-pound demolition bombs hurtle from this U.S. Far East Air Forces B-29 "Superfort" of the 19th Bomb Group toward a Red target somewhere beneath the cloud layers in Korea. Bomber Command "Superforts" are able to unload heavy tonnages of bombs with pin-point precision despite thick cloud coverage by use of new techniques in radar aiming. August 1951.

A B-29 of the 28th BS/19th BG (as evidenced by the green tail tip, wing tip, nose bar, and central fuselage bar) drops ten 1,000lb bombs on North Korea in August 1950. The B-29 is probably involved in one of the missions to a railroad bridge near Seoul, Korea, on 19 or 20 August 1950. The two raids destroyed the bridge completely.
