Did they not build their own version of the B-29, based on the blueprints they constructed of the model they had at hand? I do not believe they had any blueprints. The Tu-4 was completely reverse engineered. VL I think we're saying the same thing. I didn't say that they had any blueprints....I said that they made them by taking the airplane apart, measuring and weighing everything, and putting their findings down on their own blueprints, so that the Tupelov people could build an airplane from them. If that's reverse engineering, that's undoubtedly what they did. George Z.
