The Boeing XB-15 (Boeing 294) was a United States bomber aircraft designed in 1934 as a test for the United States Army Air Corps (USAAC) to see if it would be possible to build a heavy bomber with a 5000 mi (8000 km) range. For a year beginning in mid-1935 it was designated the XBLR-1. When it first flew in 1937 it was the most massive and voluminous aircraft ever built in the US.
