Synopsis
Designed in the early 1950s to counter what was perceived as the critical threat of attack by waves of nuclear-armed Soviet bombers, the Delta Dagger also pioneered armament based solely on air-to-air guided missiles (including versions with nuclear tips), and an extremely complex ground control system that made the interception process almost automatic. A massive research and development effort produced the F-102A '1954 Fighter', its J57 afterburning turbojet, the Hughes MX-1554 fire control system and, in due course, the Semi-Active Ground Environment of radar and communications network that covered North America to guide its airborne defences. in service, F-102As also provided air defence in Europe with USAFE, in the Far East and in Southeast Asia, where they protected US air bases in South Vietnam and Thailand from being targeted by North Vietnamese fighters and bombers, and escorted B-52s and fighter-bombers on their attack sorties, in the late 1960s up to 60 ex-USAF examples were passed to the Greek and Turkish air forces, and they confronted each other during disputes over Cyprus in 1974. Comprehensive histories of fighting aircraft and their crews, highlighting their vital role in the development of warfare in the 20th and 21st centuries, A unique source of information, researched by recognised experts and brought to life by first-hand accounts from the combat veterans themselves, Concise, authoritative text is supported by up to 30 original colour artworks, specially commissioned scale drawings, and the best archival photography from around the world Book jacket., This illustrated study explores the design, development, and deployment of the F-102, a groundbreaking fighter intended to combat the threat of Soviet nuclear-armed bombers., This illustrated study explores the design, development, and deployment of the F-102, a groundbreaking fighter intended to combat the threat of Soviet nuclear-armed bombers. World War II saw the development of the heavy bomber as a decisive weapon which, in sufficient numbers, could overcome defensive fighters and guns and lay waste to strategic targets. The addition of nuclear weapons to the bomber's armament made it even more formidable, and by the late 1940s, US planners saw the growth of a Soviet nuclear-armed bomber fleet as a terrifying threat to North American security. Conventional subsonic fighters with guns and free-flight air-to-air rockets would be incapable of reaching these incoming bombers in time to prevent even one from delivering a devastating nuclear attack. As a result, supersonic speed, long-range guided missiles and precise radar-based control of an interception became prerequisites for a new breed of fighters, beginning with the F-102. A massive research and development effort produced the F-102A "1954 Fighter," the J57 afterburning turbojet, its Hughes MX-1554 fire control system and, in due course, the Semi-Active Ground Environment (SAGE) radar and communications network that covered North America to guide its airborne defenses. In service, F-102As also provided air defense in Europe with USAFE, in the Far East, and in Southeast Asia, where they protected US airbases in South Vietnam and Thailand from air attack by North Vietnamese fighters and bombers and escorted B-52s and fighter-bombers on their attack sorties. This illustrated study from leading expert Peter E. Davis details the design, development, and deployment of the futuristic F-102, including its complex research program and role in Vietnam.
