Posted 7/8/2009
Printable Fact Sheet
The B-58B was proposed as an improved version of the B-58A. In early 1958 Convair presented a proposal to the USAF for a new model of the B-58 with more powerful versions of the General Electric J79 turbojet (J79-GE-19). The B model was also designed with canard surfaces mounted forward of the delta wing. A prototype B-58B was ordered (S/N 60-1109), but the entire project was canceled before construction began.
