Best Answer

The first atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945. It was delivered by the Enola Gay, a US B-29 "Superfortress" bomber manufactured by Boeing that was named after the pilot's mother.

Survivors of the attack noted that the bombing was particularly devastating because few residents of the city sought shelter. When only one plane was seen overhead, it was assumed that it was on a reconnaissance mission, not an attack.
