Sounds like a YB-40 gunship or else its predecessor.

Enjoy

Yes I know it was a B-17E just stating that they probably borrowed some of these ideas from the Boeing engineers. They would have had difficulty installing the second turret like the YB-40 but the twin 50's at the waist position were already being used in this version of the Fort.
