Look at the size of those engines. What a hot rod.

I could run both engines to full military power while tied down for trim checks, but could only run one while in afterburner. It would beat a Six or Phantom off the ground but alas they were both faster at the top end.

The gear doors are insignia blue and there is a rectangular blue patch on the left NLG door for the crew chiefs name. I haven't yet seen a decal sheet for this scheme. You can probably adapt the ADWC shield from the F-106 sheet and fudge the rest! LOL.

there must be a sheet for it somewhere......! MicroScale/SuperScale made THOUSANDS of different sheets for so many planes,and they were just one of lots of aftermarket decal producers.
