The Martin XB-58 was a cancelled supersonic nuclear bomber resembling the F-104 Starfighter, although it was far larger at 33 meters long, which is larger than the Tupolev Tu-128 Fiddler fighter jet.
It was to be powered by two Pratt & Whitney J75 afterburning turbojets and was to have a M61 Vulcan rotary cannon at the tip of its tail
