Let’s get Friday started with the start of the Century Series. Clockwise from top: McDonnell F-101 Voodoo, Convair F-102 Delta Dagger, North American F-100 Super Sabre, Lockheed F-104 Starfighter. The !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! was never built.

Mmm, I was going to add the F-110 Spectre , but with the whole ‘62 Tri-Service Designation system change-over I decided against it.
