While I do not have an exact answer for you, I can tell you that the Enola Gay was selected by Tibbets on May 9, 1945 while it was still in the assembly line and it was accepted by the Air Force on May 18, 1945. It was part of the second batch of Silverplate B-29s, modified by Tibbets to carry the atomic bomb. A total of 15 Silverplate B-29s were manufactured.
