Buy FSX Steam Edition: Convair F-106 Delta Dart Add-On PC

Convair's F-106 Delta Dart stands out as a premier all-weather interceptor from the USAF's 1954 program. This delta-wing aircraft hit a world speed record of Mach 2.31 at 40,500 feet in 1959 and featured advanced Hughes fire-control systems for ground-directed operations. It served 28 years until the F-15 took over in 1981, with Air National Guard use extending to 1988. Fly single-seater and two-seater variants in this PC simulation, complete with an authentic virtual cockpit, animated controls, and a functional radar that tracks unlimited targets with ID, type, heading, and altitude data. Deploy extendable missile racks holding four AIM-4G Falcons, activate a drag chute via reverse thrust or cockpit handle, and manage speedbrakes, bomb bay doors, and canopy. Detailed checklists guide precise flight models, enhanced by custom effects for turbine glow, smoke, contrails, and vapor flash, plus high-quality sounds-ideal for simulation pilots seeking historical accuracy.

Convair's superb F-106 Delta Dart is regarded by those close to it as the best all-weather interceptor ever designed. It was created as an outgrowth of the USAF's interceptor program in 1954. The aircraft used a delta wing design, common at the time because of its immunity to many of the problems experienced by conventional wings at supersonic speeds. In December, 1959 the aircraft set a world speed record of Mach 2.31 (1,526 mph) at 40,500 feet. It was equipped with advanced Hughes fire-control systems and could be controlled from the ground to some extent. The aircraft remained in service for 28 years, ultimately being replaced by the F-15 in 1981 but serving with the Air National Guard until 1988. The last unmanned Delta Dart drone was destroyed in 1998.
