Peacemaker Parasites

Composite photo from Convair Aircraft of the XF-85 in flight near the XB-36 Peacemaker prototype. Initial plans for the parasite fighter test program were to be done using the XB-36. Delays in design and production of the large bomber curtailed those plans and flight testing moved to a modified B-29 Superfortress.
