+10000000000000000000 for the beaufort, and hampden
Ugg! This is NOT a Beaufort/Hampden thread! Can we PLEASE stay ON topic?!?
It'd be easy to make a franken out of this. B29 fuselage, tail and engines, B24 nose, cockpit ,wing and turrets. After all it does look like the love child of a B24 and a B29. I vote yes

+1 lol
A couple of facts regarding the B-32. This plane saw limited combat in only the last months of WWII.
First, only 118 were produced and only six were operational during the last two months of the war. Actually it would have been seven, except one crashed on takeoff on its first sortie.
These aircraft shot down three (confirmed) and probably got four more without losing any to enemy action
