I made a post a little while ago that grew to have just about everything you need to know about them.

Basically identical... could fly about 5k higher, 1 mile faster per hour, operationally carried 2k more than B17 (big whoop) and had the exact same armament, only with the flex wing and the way the entire fuselage warped and bucked at max alt it was easy to destroy and hard to maintain level flight.
