WWII Production of the B-24 Bomber


The Genius of Henry Ford.
This was BEFORE Pearl Harbor!
Ford's B-24 Bomber Plant at Willow Run, MI.
Henry Ford was determined that he could mass produce bombers just as he had done with cars.
He built the Willow Run assembly plant and proved it. It was the world's largest building under one roof.
Even then FORD HAD A BETTER IDEA!
This film will absolutely blow you away - one B-24 every 55 minutes.
The Army Air Corps bought 8,685 of these in WWII
Each one was made with 1,225,000 machined parts
ADOLF HITLER HAD NO IDEA THE U.S. WAS CAPABLE OF THIS KIND OF THING.
