During World War 2, the production of the B-29 aircraft was one of the most complex and diverse manufacturing projects undertaken in the United States.
The project was executed through the coordination of thousands of subcontractors who supplied various components or assemblies to the four main production plants: Boeing operated these plants in Renton, Washington, and Wichita, Kansas, Glenn L. Martin in Omaha, Nebraska, and Bell in Marietta, Georgia.
In contrast, the B-24 aircraft relied on a significantly smaller number of subcontractors, with as many as 100 firms involved in its production, some of whom also utilized additional subcontractors.
The following is an incomplete list of the B-29 subcontractors during World War 2:
