The Ultra Fast Interceptor that Became an Unseen Flying Predator
Рет қаралды 124,900
25 күн бұрынOn February 3, 1968, two of the Vietnam People’s Air Force top pilots, Pham Thanh Ngan and Nguyen Van Coc, took off on MIG-21s on their fourth interception mission of the day: a radar-detected pair of enemy aircraft, most likely light bombers.
However, as the duo approached the Laotian border, MiG-21 pilot Ngan thought he spotted an EB‐66 ECM aircraft; a closer look revealed a much more valuable target: two Convair F-102 Delta Daggers, the world’s first supersonic all-weather jet interceptor.
Also, the United States Air Force’s first operational delta-wing aircraft, the Delta Dagger, had been wreaking havoc on Vietnam for nearly six years as one of America’s first deployed aircraft models to the area.
That day, the Daggers were piloted by Major A. L. Lomax as the flight leader, with 1Lt Wallace Wiggins as his wingman. Sensing the imminent threat, the leader reacted with the precision of a seasoned warrior and tried to unleash the fury of three of his missiles.
But when every missile missed its mark, the Americans were becoming an easy target.
With this, seizing the moment and about to become the first-ever North Vietnam pilot to fire at the iconic Convair Delta Dagger directly, Ngan sneakily maneuvered into the blind spot behind Wiggins and aimed.

I was an avionics tech on F-106s (among other types) at Tyndall AFB, Fl. The pilots loved the "Six". For us techs and mechanics, it could be a bit of a maintenance nightmare, as everything was so integrated, we'd sometimes waste of a lot of time trying to decide whose problem it really was. But it's still my favorite jet aircraft. Over the decades I've built many scale models, in various squadron markings, and the exact markings of three planes I actually worked on. 😎👍 At this time, late 1970s, the earlier F-102 was being used as a target drone, modified by Sperry-Rand.

I worked on both the F-102 and F-106 during my 12 yrs in the Florida Air National Guard. It is sad to see a documentary film like this showing the F-106 where the F-102 is being described. This film has many such mistakes in it. Too bad they were not better informed about the easy to spot differences so as to be accurate with the visuals. I must admit that the F-106 was a more attractive and sleek aircraft. I worked on and repaired the radar systems in both aircraft.

I once saw a flight demo of an F-106 at the Chicago Air and Water show and all the people on the beach stood up and cheered for the F-106. The only other time I've seen an air show crowd react that strongly to a flight demo was for the F-14 Tomcat.

F-102s in combat, as per Wiki: "The F-102 and TF-102 were exported overseas to both Turkey and Greece. The Turkish F-102s saw combat missions during the 1974 Turkish invasion of Cyprus. There have been claims of air combat between Greek F-5s and Turkish F-102s above the Aegean Sea during the Turkish invasion. A Greek internet website editor, Demetrius Stergiou, claims that the Greek F-5s had shot down two Turkish F-102s, while the Turkish side has claimed that their F-102s had shot down two Greek F-5s;[73] however, both Greece and Turkey still officially deny any aircraft losses."

As a kid I grew up not far from George Air Force base. I remember when the F102’s arrived. That year at the air show at George the 102 was the star of the show. Airmen walked through the crowd of spectators with boxes of 2” long plastic models of the 102 and would throw them into the air which sent us scrambling to pick them up off the tarmac. I ended up with quite a few. I thought the 102 was the coolest plane ever until the F104 showed up. This video brought back good memories.

The F102 evolved into the F106. it was going to be the F102B, but the new engine, wings, structural mods, avionics and weapons made it more like a new aircraft. I like their names, "Dagger and Dart". The F106 Delta Dart became involved in a bizarre incident known as 'the cornfield bomber'. Lt Gary Foust while piloting his Dart in a dogfight simulation lost control and went into a stall spin. His airspeed dropped to zero, his engine lost power, he deployed his drag chute which wrapped around his tail. Out of options, he punched out. Much to his amazement, the jet pulled out, and glided down and gently landed on its belly, suffering only minor damage, the engine continued to run until the fuel was exhausted in a wheatfield in Montana. Gary was soon reunited with his Dart and they flew training missions until both retired at Eglin AF base in Florida. The restored Dart now rests in an AF museum in Dayton OH, where Gary often posed for pictures next to his plane telling his story. He thought that his nickname was inappropriate, since it wasn't a cornfield and the Dart certainly wasn't a bomber. The entire event was documented by the other 2 pilots, and is known as 58-0787 in military speak. Gary and his wingman flew directly at each other passing each other both going mach 1.9 on full afterburners and climbing vertically. Thats when Gary Lost it. He lost 16,000 feet of altitude before he ejected, trying to save his plane. It was the main event in Montana on Feb 2, 1970. He's immortal now, after living a full life.

Nice video. The Hughes Falcon missiles were not good. The infrared versions required the pilot to discharge a nitrogen bottle to cool the seeker first and then launch it, which meant the pilot had to stay on the target's rear aspect for several seconds. The missile, like all first-generation heat seekers, was only effective for rear-aspect shots, tracking engine exhaust. Nevertheless, China Lake Naval Weapons Center's Sidewinder missile was far more effective and reliable from the start.

I show no instances where a US F-102 actually shot down an opponent but I was aware of some limited use of the F-102, though because it did not do any close air support, I never saw one in the entire time I was in the theater. My overall impression was that it was not well suited to the missions there and was used in places where aircraft more capable and suitable to the missions could be freed up. This is not meant as disrespectful to the aircraft of the crews, but simply to say that the role in Vietnam seemed to be more of a supporting actor, but every actor has its part.

AIM4s were only really effective against non-manuevering targets... like the B17 drones they were tested against. When employed by F4Cs against NVAF MiGs, they performed horribly between the long cool-down interval of the IR seeker heads, to the small amount of coolant carried that made them single use weapons. Col. Robin Olds famously ordered them off of his base in Thailand, and then effected a local field modification to reequip his F4s with AIM9s. As the 60s drew to a close, the F102s used up worthless stocks of AIM4s against campfires that were about the only target they could manage to hit. That is the real story behind their use... not some brilliant tactical move.

The only reason he wasn't dead (it was headed straight for him) was that a detonator probe hit a revetment wall and detonated the warhead 100 yards short of where he stood.

The F-102 and F-106 were thoroughbreds, designed for one mission - intercepting incoming Soviet bombers. Not dogfighting. All-round visibility was not a priority back then. And sitting in the pilot seat, forward visibility was not bad. That black divider panel just sort of blurs out and is largely unnoticed. But, you have to actually sit in the cockpit to appreciate this. And during the intercept the pilot is busy looking at the radar screen, not rubbernecking. Even though not a dogfighter, the Six was later developed to carry an optional 20mm gun pod, the "Six Shooter". And it proved it could outmaneuver the F-4 Phantom II.

He was then moved to the Air National Guard but the 102's had been relegated to at home Guard duty by then.
