?Supersonic
Sundown? features a quartet of Convair B-58 Hustler USAF Strategic Air Command intercontinental
bombers flying through a partially cloudy sunset over a shimmering
ocean. The waning afternoon sun shines brightly on the Hustler?s
natural metal finish as they climb in tight formation toward their
cruising altitude.
For a time, the B-58 was not just the fastest operational bomber in the world, it was one of the fastest operational aircraft. Each one of her four General Electric J79 engines produced 15,000 pounds of thrust, and propelled the Hustler to her maximum speed of 1,325 MPH. After her acceptance by the U. S. Air Force, Hustler aircrews wasted no time in braking speed and altitude records and winning major aeronautical trophies (Bendix, Bleriot, Harmon, Mackay, and Thompson).
