The first of thirty five B-52C's came off the Seattle assembly line on 7th December 1955. The B-52C also carried 3000 gallon wing tanks in place of the 1000 gallon tanks used on the B-52B. First flying on the 9th March 1956 and remaining in service until September 1971, it was retired from service after seeing combat in South East Asia. The most important bomber version in South East Asia was the B-52D which received the 'Big Belly' conversion. This greatly increased its ability to carry 500lb or 750lb bombs. 56-0689 ex 7 BW, Carswell AFB, Texas flew into Duxford in June 1983 for preservation and is currently in the American Air Museum there.
