2011 B-1 - Operation Odyssey Dawn Derytaro 2016-07-10 | LIBYA FACES A NEW DAWNThe revolutions across the Arab world reached Libya in February of 2011, when civil war broke out across the country and against the longtime ruler there, Muammar Gaddafi. The following month, the member countries of the United Nations Security Council, including France, the United Kingdom, the United States, Russia and China, agreed to establish a no-fly zone over Libya. The United States brought in the B-1B Lancer to support the NATO air campaign. A new government formed in September, 2011.
2003 B-52 - Operation Iraqi Freedom Derytaro 2016-07-10 | B-52 ANSWERS THE CALLThe United States began invasion of Iraq in March, 2003. The U.S. Air Force used the B-52, in its 48th year of service, to provide support and drop ordnance while ground forces marched across the country. The initial invasion lasted until April 30, only 40 days after it began.
2001 B-2 - Operation Enduring Freedom Derytaro 2016-07-10 | THE SPIRIT OVER AFGHANISTANThe United States began its aerial bombardment of the Taliban and Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan on Sunday, Oct. 7, 2001, less than a month after the attacks on Sept. 11. The B-2 Spirit, an advanced stealth bomber, dropped ordnance on the country in coordination with the B-52 and the B-1B. By mid-November, NATO forces had taken most of northern Afghanistan. The mission’s main objectives: to capture al-Qaeda leaders, destroy terrorist training grounds and end terrorist activities in the country. Three years later, in October of 2004, the country held its first direct elections for president.
1991 B-1 - Operation Desert Storm Derytaro 2016-07-10 | THE “BONE” IN THE STORMIraq, led by its president, Saddam Hussein, invaded its neighboring country Kuwait in August of 1990. Hussein had accused Kuwait of stealing Iraqi oil through horizontal drilling. The international community responded quickly, and the United States led a coalition of 34 countries to push Iraqi forces out of Kuwait in Operation Desert Storm. The military campaign lasted a little over a month, during which time the B-1B Lancer, nicknamed the “Bone,” was used extensively. The aircraft aided the coalition forces in routing what was the fourth largest army at the time.
1965 B-70 - First bomber to achieve Mach 3 Derytaro 2016-07-10 | FLYING HIGHER, FASTERNorth American Aviation, a Boeing heritage company, won a contract to build two prototype bombers capable of flying higher and faster than ever before, in order to avoid intercept vehicles over the Soviet Union. North American created the six-engine XB-70. The aircraft could fly Mach 3 (2,000 miles per hour) at more than 77,000 feet. This new capability would have allowed the B-70 to outrun any fighter jet, and fly above any surface-to-air missiles on its nuclear mission. Shortly after testing began, the United States Air Force introduced its first Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles, and the program was disbanded.
1960 B-58 - The first flight of the first supersonic bomber Derytaro 2016-07-10 | A BOMBER WITH A SONIC BOOMThe United States Air Force introduced the first supersonic bomber into service March 15, 1960. The Convair, a Lockheed Martin heritage company, B-58 “Hustler” had a delta wing and could fly at Mach 2 with an operational ceiling of 63,000 feet. Although it had a shorter range and payload capacity than the B-52, the four turbojet engines allowed the aircraft to climb at 17,400 feet per minute fully loaded. And, overall, it provided the Strategic Air Command with a rapid, nuclear-strike option.
1955 B-52 - Introduction of the longest-serving bomber in history Derytaro 2016-07-10 | MORE THAN 50 YEARS OF SERVICE AND STILL GOINGBoeing used the company‘s bomber heritage to build the eight-engine, all-jet B-52. It was to become the longest-serving bomber ever when it entered into service in 1955. Now with more than 50 years of service, the B-52 has a 70,000 pound payload capacity, can climb to 50,000 feet and fly 650 miles per hour. Boeing’s last production run was the “H” line, which it built in 1963. The company has since maintained and sustained the aircraft to support the United States’ missions throughout the successive half century.
1945 B-29 - World War II ends Derytaro 2016-07-10 | PACIFIC BOMBINGS PROVE DECISIVENear the end of World War II, Boeing produced the B-29, an advanced aircraft that had a pressurized cabin, electronic fire-control system and remote-controlled machine gun turrets. The Army Air Corps extensively used the four-engine “Superfortress” in the Pacific theater, many launched from a forward base in China and, after they were seized in the summer of 1944, the Mariana Islands. Although it was originally designed and built for high-altitude bombing raids, the aircraft was also used in low-level raids in support of the United States’ island hopping strategy in the Pacific Ocean.
1943 B-17 - Joint Army Air Corps and Royal Air Force begin joint bombing missions over Europe Derytaro 2016-07-10 | COMBINED OFFENSIVE OVER EUROPEFollowing the outbreak of World War II, first Britain’s Royal Air Force then the United States Army Air Corps purchased thousands of B-17s and began to use them extensively in the European theater. Over the next two years, the two countries flew hundreds of missions designed to disrupt and destroy Germany’s domestic war effort. During these missions, the B-17 earned a reputation that it could survive heavy damage from enemy fighter pilots and anti-aircraft fire. On Oct. 14, 1943, what would become “Black Thursday,” 291 bombers attacked factories in Schweinfurt, Germany, of which 77 were lost and 122 needed repairs.
1942 B-25 - The Doolittle Raids Derytaro 2016-07-10 | A ONE-WAY MISSION DEEP INTO ENEMY TERRITORYOne month after Pearl Harbor, Jimmy Doolittle proposed the U.S. Navy launch bomb-loaded B-25s from an aircraft carrier. Chosen for its size, 16 of the North American Aviation built aircraft loaded onto the USS Hornet and, on April 18, 1942, attacked the Japanese mainland. Of the 81 bombers, 69 survived, and Doolittle won the Medal of Honor, with President Roosevelt saying, “With the apparent certainty of being forced to land in enemy territory or to perish at sea, Lt. Col. Doolittle personally led a squadron of Army bombers, manned by volunteer crews, in a highly destructive raid on the Japanese mainland.”
1934 Y1B-17 - Army Air Corps purchases its first strategic bombers Derytaro 2016-07-10 | AN AMERICAN BOMBER IS BORNIn 1934, the U.S. Army Air Service announced a multiengine bomber competition. Boeing answered with the company-funded XB-17, which added two engines to its YB-9 design that allowed the Model 299 to surpass the Army’s requirements. Pilot error caused the Model 299 to crash and Boeing to lose the competition, but Army leadership believed in the plane’s abilities and ordered 13 Y1B-17s. The aircraft, a predecessor for the B-17, could fly 256 miles per hour at 30,600 feet with a range of 3,320 miles—well past the competition’s desired 200 miles per hour at 10,000 feet for 10 hours.
1924 Douglas World Cruiser - First around the world flight newsreel footage Derytaro 2016-07-10 | AROUND THE WORLD IN 175 DAYSThe United States Army Air Service commissioned the Douglas Aircraft Company to design and build its Douglas World Cruiser for the first flight around the world. The Boeing heritage company built only five of the aircraft, of which four attempted the flight, each named after a city in the U.S.—Seattle, Chicago, Boston and New Orleans. Of the original four aircraft, only two made the 27,553-mile journey back to the starting point in Seattle. Seattle’s crew survived crashing into a mountainside in Alaska but lost the aircraft, and the Boston II replaced Boston after mechanical issues downed it over the Atlantic.

Boeings enlightening partnerships Derytaro 2014-06-15 | Boeing and NRG Energy brought their first solar power plant online today in Brawley, Calif., 10 months after the project began.Six megawatts of power -- generated via 25,000 solar panels arranged on 3,100 solar arrays spread across 37 acres -- started feeding the southern California power grid with clean, renewable energy. Engineers supporting the project say the new solar farm, known as "Community," can power 2,200 average homes at full capacity."Building clean, affordable, secure power that feeds our grid is important," said Tim Noonan, vice president of Ventures, part of Boeing Defense, Space & Security. "Our expertise in supply chain management, program management, and systems engineering and our ability to bring world-class performance-based logistics to a new industry is rewarding and makes sense for Boeing. This is one way we're helping to build a better planet."Boeing provided NRG Energy, the Community project owner and largest independent power company in the United States, with engineering, procurement and construction services. NRG will sell the solar-generated power to the Imperial Irrigation District, the local utility company. This partnership underscores Boeing's continuing progress in creating solutions for environmental challenges facing communities where its employees live and work.NRG and Boeing have also teamed up to build a much larger 25.65 megawatt solar power plant on the island of Guam. It will be the first solar plant built on the island. The expected completion date is late 2014."We're very excited to be working with Boeing in solar power, and are excited about the many different directions this can take both companies," said Randy Hickok, senior vice president, NRG.
