The B52H bomber had eight TF-33 turbofan engines.


Ten when carrying Hound Dog.

Ten jet engines that is, not ten TF-33s.

It was developed by Convair's Photoshop Works to test the feasibility
of creating a bomber with a range so short as to be unable to achieve
a tanker evolution, thereby saving the costs and dangers associated
with in-flight refueling. In eleven consecutive tests it failed to
complete even a takeoff roll. The program was eventually cancelled due
to budget surpluses. At least that's what my uncle told me, and he
should know because he worked in Section 8.
