What plane dropped the nuclear bomb in World War 2?
The Enola Gay dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945.The bomber named Bockscar dropped the bomb on Nagasaki on August 9. Both aircraft were B-29 bombers that operated from a special unit; the 509th Composite Bomb Group.Over the years, there has been some confusion concerning the name of the bomber that dropped the bomb on Nagasaki. Some have claimed the plane was named Bock's Car or Bocks Car. The name that appears on the front of the plane is Bockscar. The plane was originally assigned to Captain Frederick C. Bock. However, due a mix-up regarding how each of the mission's planes were equipped, Bockscar was flown by Sweeney instead of Bock.See the related links for more information and a photo of Bockscar.
