Known to the company as the Model 8-24, the first order for the aircraft was for seventeen examples, ordered in November 1955 as the F-102B. Subsequent changes in the official requirement, calling for an aircraft capable of all weather interception within 430 miles (692 km) at altitudes up to 70,000 ft (21,335 m), led to adoption of the F-106 designation on 17th June 1956.

  • Known to the company as the Model 8-24, the first order for the aircraft was for seventeen examples, ordered in November 1955 as the F-102B. Subsequent changes in the official requirement, calling for an aircraft capable of all weather interception within 430 miles (692 km) at altitudes up to 70,000 ft (21,335 m), led to adoption of the F-106 designation on 17th June 1956. The first trials aircraft began flying on 26 December 1956, the type entering service with USAF Air Defence Command in July 1959. When production of the Delta Dart was completed in July 1961, 277 F106As had been built, together with 63 fully operational two seat F-106B combat training aircraft. A total of 13 squadrons operated the type until their withdrawal from USAF service in August 1988, with final operations being flown by units of the Air National Guard (ANG).
