Facts about Strategic Air Command

The model aircraft seen on Gen. Hawkes's desk in the final scene might appear to be an eight-engine variant of the six-engine B-47 featured in the film, but is actually a prototype B-52 (either XB-52 or YB-52), with a canopy cockpit design similar to the B-47; the design was changed in the production version.
