At the time, the United States saw itself threatened on both oceans by German and Japanese submarines and surface raiders, leading BuAer to issue a specification for a very long-range, heavily armed patrol boat that could loiter for a long period of time over large distances. Even before the prototype flew, Boeing received a provisional order for fifty-seven production models and proceeded with construction of a new plant at Renton, Washington that would be dedicated to manufacturing the PBB-1. Full production was eventually cancelled.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eScale 1\/100.
