B52 Stratofortress nose section at AMARG Aerospace Reclamation and Maintenance Group, Tucson AZ - Matthew Christopher Murray's Abandoned America
B52-G Stratofortress. B-52s like this one were chopped into five pieces as part of the START I treaty between the US and USSR.

Stephen Talaga adds in the comments, "B52-G This section would be called the "41" section. No idea why they would still have it. All B52-Gs have been removed from active duty. Most have been cut up as part of the SALT agreement. Only B52-Hs remain. Less then 100 B52s left. This One #6486 was built in 1956"
