The 317th Convair F-106A Delta Dart built was c/n 8-31-19 serial 59-0130 / AD152 and was delivered to the USAF on September 1, 1960. The 5th FIS “Spittin Kittens” was the last unit 59-0130 was assigned. The “Spittin Kittens” got their name from the 2 lynx cub mascots they adopted. In 1985 the F-15 began replacing the F-106s and this aircraft was sent to storage and then converted to a drone and survived. Next it was used by NASA before being sent to AMARC in 1998.
Designed as a refinement of the F102, the F106 was first flown on December 26th, 1956. © Copyright 2003-2026 The Flying Mule, Inc.
Hobby Master's 1:72 scale F-106 Delta Dart is a fast-looking model, skillfully designed using modern manufacturing techniques with the inclusion of many fine features. The hinged, sharply-angled canopy opens to reveal pad-printed front and side instrument panels. The landing gear and gear doors are constructed as subassemblies allowing quick and easy configuration for ground or in-flight display. The solid metal wing is masterfully recreated with downturned leading edges and two removable streamlined supersonic fuel tanks. The weapons bay is constructed as a one-piece subassembly, with four Falcon missiles featuring finely detailed trapeze mounts.
