The Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress is an American four-engine heavy bomber widely used by the United States Army Air Forces during World War II, especially from 1941 to 1945. These aircraft performed thousands of bombing missions over Europe, becoming a symbol of Allied air power. One of the key components of the B-17's equipment were oxygen systems—essential for high-altitude flights, where the crew was exposed to the risk of hypoxia.
