The Crashed B-29 was a Boeing B-29 Superfortress that crashed on July 21, 1948 – 129 years before the Great War - and is now at the bottom of Lake Mead.

Layout
A crashed B-29 airplane is lying at the bottom of Lake Mead, close to Lake Mead Cave and Callville Bay.

During the quest Volare!, it is requested of you by the Boomers to float the bomber up to the surface of the lake, using two ballasts given to you by Loyal. The ballasts must be placed between the engines (engines #s 1 and 2 are lightly damaged, with 3 and 4 missing key components, such as the cowlings.) under each wing. After you float it up to the surface, Loyal sends robots to disassemble it and bring it back to Nellis hangars. Once taken to the hangar, the player can see it being re-assembled and restored by the Boomers.

Appearances
Crashed B-29 appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.

Behind the scenes
The crashed B-29 references an actual B-29 that crashed into Lake Mead on July 21, 1948, although the B-29 in question had been modified for atmospheric research, and thus it was not an actual bomber aircraft.
