Didn’t know they tried out remote belly turrets on B17s. I know that the earliest Forts were nearly unarmed.

Up through the D model it was poorly armed with a single .30 cal in a ventral tub that was also supposed to cover the tail?!?!

A tail gun position was first installed in the E model for the first time.
