It was also used to a lesser extent in the Pacific theater. Such was the design's success that it dropped more bombs than any other American plane in WWII. The definitive version of the Flying Fortress introduced on production lines in July 1943 was the B-17G, with a total of 8680 eventually being manufactured. Dragon Warbirds has previously released a popular B-17F model, but it is now offering the first ever B-17G. One of the primary differences was that the B-17G featured the power-operated Bendix chin-type turret with twin .50-cal MGs under the nose, while other gun station locations around the fuselage were finalized.
