Japanese Engineers Studied Boeing's B-29 Lines — Realized One Superfortress Appeared Every Day

When Japanese engineers studied captured photos and intelligence reports of Boeing’s B-29 Superfortress production lines, they were stunned. In America’s vast wartime factories, massive bombers rolled off assembly lines not by the month — but every single day. At plants in Wichita, Marietta, and Renton, thousands of workers, many of them women, labored around the clock. Each shift assembled wings, engines, and pressurized fuselages with precision unheard of in pre-war aviation. The B-29 wasn’t just a marvel of design — it was a miracle of mass production. For the Japanese engineers, it was a terrifying revelation. While they struggled to hand-build fighters and bombers one at a time, the United States was building hundreds of flying fortresses monthly. The realization shattered any illusion of technological parity — America had turned industrial might into an unstoppable weapon.
