Hobby Master 1/72 Air Power Series Part # HA3602 F-106A Delta DartUSAF, 5th FIS, "Spittin' Kittens"1984 The Convair F-106 Delta Dart began as an advanced version of the F-102 but because of so many modifications and design changes it became a new aircraft with its own designation. It was designed as a missile carrying all-weather interceptor against Soviet bombers and served in this role from the 1960s until the 1980s. The F-106A as well as the F-106B two-seat trainer served with 15 fighter interceptor squadrons starting in 1959. The aircraft was rarely referred to as the Delta Dart but was commonly called the “6”.The 317th Convair F-106A Delta Dart built was c/n 8-31-19 serial 59-0130 / AD152 and was delivered to the USAF on September 1, 1960. The 5th FIS “Spittin Kittens” was the last unit 59-0130 was assigned. The “Spittin Kittens” got their name from the 2 lynx cub mascots they adopted. In 1985 the F-15 began replacing the F-106s and this aircraft was sent to storage and then converted to a drone and survived. Next it was used by NASA before being sent to AMARC in 1998. 1/72 scale pre-finished.Die-cast metal with a minimum of plastic.Professionally painted.All markings are pad applied for superb results.
