The B-52 a Bomb Truck.....yes indeed for sure....it rains bombs...lots of bombs....and when you run them over a target in Three's.....it is very impressive.
During the Vietnam War those Strikes known as "Arc Light" Strikes....were announced by radio several ways so that other aircraft could avoid the target areas.
We would plot the coordinates on our paper maps (the only kind we had) with a start point and an end point then we knew where not to be.
Mis-plotting due to a transcription error could sometimes have rather interesting results.....like really startling results as the jungle in front of your erupted into smoke, flame, and airborne debris along with some interesting turbulence.
Landing ground troops to do a BDA and movement to contact with NVA troops that had been the target afforded some interesting sights and accounts of the devastation that could be wrought by the Arc Light.
Lots of nice trees got turned into splinters....and huge craters became cat fish ponds as a result too.
Probably the best example of the B-52 in those days as a Tactical Bomber was in its role in the breaking of the seige of Khe Sanh Marine Base.
Long video....the Buff's appear at Ten Minutes into the film.
