Convair 4 XB-58A Hustler

10/31/2013. Remarks by Johan Visschedijk: "The first prototype XB-58A conducting the first flight with the two component pod. The larger, outer component carried fuel, the interior component was the bomb. When it neared the target, it dropped the outer component and then dropped the bomb on the target."
