Darts in the Sky
The F-106 emerged from the USAF's 1954 interceptor program
of the early 1950s as an advanced derivative of the F-102 Delta Dagger
known as the F-102B, with which the United States Air Force
placed an order for in November 1955.
The aircraft featured so many modifications and design changes that it basically
became a new design in its own right
and was redesignated F-106 on 17 June 1956.
