The F-102A Delta Dagger is a supersonic all-weather fighter- interceptor. One of the mainstays of the Air Defense Command in the 1960’s, it used a data link computer to track and acquire targets. Frist flown in 1953, the F-102 became fully operational for the Air Force in 1956. By 1974, F-102s--- called “Deuces”--- had all been assigned to the ANG and the air forces of Greece and Turkey. The “Deuces” on display here were flown by the 176^th Fighter Interceptor Squadron, WI ANG, at Truax Field, in Madison. The TF-model (S/N 56-2353) is the subsonic side-by-side two-seat training version of the “the Deuce.”

There are 1 known Convair F-102 Delta Dagger on display in Wisconsin.
