So did the F-100, F-84 and F-104 wings. None had any silly FB designation.
One aircraft got that, the FB-111 Only for the ones SAC took on.

Please note that the FB-111 which SAC flew out of Pease and
Plattsburgh was a different model entirely than the F-111A/D/E/F
versions flown in TAC and USAFE. Larger wing, higher gross weight,
different avionics.
