Welcome to #WarbirdWednesday! We’re going back to the Century Series with the F-102 Delta Dagger, an interceptor fighter made by Convair. This aircraft was the epitome of the mid-1950’s military complex design thinking. Entering service in 1956, its main purpose was to intercept invading Soviet strategic bomber fleets during the Cold War. Enjoy the video and as always, thanks for watching!
