- 1 x Convair F-106A Delta Dart 1/72 scale interceptor fighter aircraft [C Series]
United States Air Force
The F-106A was developed as a developmental type of the previous F-102A Delta Dagger.
It was an all-weather interceptor fighter and was initially called the F-102B.
Compared to the J57 engine installed in the F-102
The F-106 equipped with the J75 with 50% improved thrust
It has grown into a Mach 2nd-class interceptor.
The biggest feature of the F-106 is its fire control system.
At that time, it became integrated with SAGE, a semi-automated interception system in the continental United States.
Because it is equipped with a digital computer, Hughes MA1
It had a high-level interception capability close to full automation.
Of course, radar and navigation equipment are also equipped with state-of-the-art,
He had a very high level of all-weather capacity.
The weapon is mainly missiles,
Because there is a missile bay in the center of the fuselage
it can be mounted without exposing the missile
The speed was not limited.
The missile is a 1.5KT-class nuclear warhead with a non-guided missile AIM-2 Gini.
AIM-4F/G Super Falcon
(mixed infrared homing and semi-active homing) four shots,
However, it seems that there was not much to carry Gini.
The F-106A was deployed to the U.S. Air Force Aerospace Command (ADC) from June 1959.
After that, it continued to be used as a main anti-attack aircraft until the 1980s.
The F-106s were basically equipped with nuclear missiles.
It was developed to prevent the invasion of large Soviet bombers.
There is not much consideration for fighting with fighter jets,
They were not armed with fixed weapons,
Because the low wing surface load by the delta wing has brought high mobility,
There was also a refurbishment with the M61 Vulcan gun in the missile bay for fighting.
However, as a result, the F-106s have ended their lives without having experienced a major battle.
