The Martin XB-27, company Model 182, was a proposal from the Glenn L. Martin Company for a high-altitude medium bomber to meet a need of the United States Army Air Corps. Its design was based on that of the company's B-26 Marauder, and as drawn it called for a crew of seven, two Pratt & Whitney R-2800 engines, a wingspan of 84 feet and a service ceiling of 33,500 feet. The project remained on paper and no prototype was ever built, so the XB-27 is recorded as a design study rather than an aircraft that flew.
