<P> As production of the B - 47 came to an end , the Wichita factory was phased in for B - 52D production , with Seattle responsible for 101 D - models and Wichita 69 . Both plants continued to build the B - 52E , with 42 built at Seattle and 58 at Wichita , and the B - 52F ( 44 from Seattle and 45 from Wichita ) . For the B - 52G , it was decided in 1957 to transfer all production to Wichita , which freed up Seattle for other tasks ( in particular the production of airliners ) . Production ended in 1962 with the B - 52H , with 742 aircraft built , plus the original two prototypes . </P>
