Everybody Loves Delta Shaped Jet Fighters

[Aharon]

Shalom and greetings all my pals,

Since everybody now loves any delta shaped or winged jet fighters/interceptors, presenting here is exclusive scramble of delta shaped or winged jet interceptor from an USAF air force base in Alaska to head to intercept a Soviet bomber on spying mission

High speed taxiing to runway



Starting take off run with exciting after burners



Airborne!!!



Retracting landing gear



This is what looks like in front page of newspaper in era 1960s

F-106? good choice, nice shots

Indeed. The Delta Dart. These were replaced with the F-15 which because of its wing area was nicknamed The Flying Tennis Court.

Splitpin and Simonh,

Thanks for your kind words.

I like how this, and the mirage have such sleek and simple shapes, much prettier than the modern fighter jets I think.
