The Convair B-36 Peacemaker
The Convair B-36 Peacemaker had a pretty short lifespan as the primary nuclear weapons delivery vessel for the Strategic Air Command. It was the first bomber plane that could deliver nuclear weapons and fly intercontinentally without the need to refuel. Phased out in 1959, it got replaced by B-52 Stratofortress.
