博克斯卡號轟炸機(英語:Bockscar)有時稱為「博克的車」(Bock's Car),是美國陸軍航空隊一架B-29轟炸機的名字,這架轟炸機就是促使第二次世界大戰結束,於1945年8月9日在日本長崎市投擲下「胖子原子彈」的著名轟炸機,扔下那枚大炸彈也是用來對付日本的第二個原子武器,它被分配到了第509混合飛行大隊中的第393轟炸中隊

「博克的車」機鼻藝術塗繪:「胖子」輪廓符號代表着四次南瓜炸彈任務(黑色符號)以及投在長崎的原子彈(紅色符號,一行五個中的第四個)

這個畫在飛機上的名字是一個雙關語「貨車車廂」(boxcar),且在任務完成後由該飛機指揮官飛行中隊隊長弗雷德里克·C·博克所起。
