The Boeing Model 360 was an early 1940s project by Boeing for a giant intercontinental bomber.[1]
Design and development
editThe Model 360 had a long-span wing with a thickened center section, and two slim booms protruded from the wing holding two vertical stabilizers connected together by a rectangular horizontal stabilizer. Four piston engines were buried in the wing center section in pusher position driving four three-bladed propellers.
