The Consolidated B-24D Liberator was a long-range bomber and reconnasissance aircraft. With origins tracing back to the early 1930s, many often overlook that the B-24 was the most extensively produced aircraft by the US for World War II. The Liberator weighed 36,500 pounds empty (71,200 pounds stocked), reached a top speed of 290mph, and was armed with ten 12.7mm machine-guns with a provision for nearly 18,000 pounds worth of bomb-load.
