B-52“同溫層堡壘”（英語：B-52 Stratofortress）是美国波音飞机公司研制的八引擎远程战略轰炸机，用于替换B-36和平締造者轟炸機执行战略轰炸任务。1948年提出设计方案，1952年第一架原型机首飞，1955年批量生产型开始交付使用，先后发展了B-52A、B、C、D、E、F、G、H等8种型别，1962年停止生产，总共生产了744架飞机。90年代是B-52轰炸机使用的鼎盛时期，有600多架B-52各型飞机在美国战略空军服役，以后大多数早期型号先后退役。美國空軍現在預算讓B-52一直服役至2050年，屆時其服役時間將高達90年。由于B-52是具有發射巡弋飛彈能力的美國戰略轟炸機中，維護和使用費用最低之機種，因此美軍選擇讓B-52繼續服役。
