==Surviving aircraft== No examples of a B-32 remain today. The XB-32 (AAF Ser. No. 41-18336) survived until 1952 as a ground instructional airframe for fire fighting training at McClellan Air Force Base. Others were written off after suffering major damage in operational accidents. Excess inventories were flown either to [[Walnut Ridge Army Airfield]], Arkansas, to be scrapped by the Texas Railway Equipment Company, or to [[Kingman Army Airfield]], Arizona to be scrapped by the Wunderlich Construction Company.{{citation needed|date=April 2018}} One of the few portions of a B-32 surviving is a wing panel removed from a static test model and erected at the [[Montgomery Memorial]] near [[San Diego, California]] as a monument to aviation pioneer [[John J. Montgomery]].<ref name="joe">Baugher, Joe. [http://www.joebaugher.com/usaf_bombers/b32.html "B-32 Dominator,"] ''USAAC/USAAF/USAF Bomber Aircraft-Third Series,'' 12 July 2009. Retrieved: 29 October 2010.</ref> Several Sperry A-17 nose/tail turrets, unique to the B-32, survive in various U.S. locations. These included the [[National Air and Space Museum]], the [[National Museum of the U.S. Air Force]], the [[Commemorative Air Force]], the [[National Warplane Museum]] in [[Geneseo, New York|Geneseo]], New York and at least four others in private collections.{{citation needed|date=April 2018}}
