Although the design for North American Aviation's B-45 originated during WWII, the arrival of the Tornado in 1948 held the distinction of becoming the first purpose-built all-jet bomber in the world. Fitted with four jet engines, it was a sleek and handsome aircraft. Although its range was limited, the B-45's ability to deliver nuclear weapons made it an effective deterrent during the early part of the Cold War. The straight-wing design incorporated four GE J47 turbojet engines, mounted in pairs under each wing. The J47's produced 6000 lbs of thrust each, resulting in a top speed of just over 500 knots at 4000 feet. The Tornado saw limited service during the Korean War as both a bomber and a high altitude recon aircraft. The final version, the RB-45C, was modified as a reconnaissance aircraft. It featured prominent wingtip tanks, a skinned-over nose, up to 12 cameras, and proved to be a capable photographic platform. In all, 96 B-45A bombers, 10 B-45C's and 38 RB-45C's were built.
