First Look
Here is the latest release from Caracal Models covering a nice selection of F-106 Delta Darts from three Air National Guard squadrons. This set provides a single-seat F-106A and two-seat F-106B from each squadron, plus enough generic numbers for you to replicate any other F-106 in those squadrons.
The aircraft presented in this set include:
- F-106A, 57-2494, 101 FIS/MA ANG, 1986
- F-106B, 57-2524, 101 FIS/MA ANG, 1985
- F-106A, 59-0129, 159 FIS/FL ANG, 1985
- F-106B, 57-2533, 159 FIS/FL ANG, 1985
- F-106A, 57-2478, 186 FIS/MT ANG, 1985
- F-106B, 57-2518, 186 FIS/MT ANG, 1983
This set will work with the Monogram 1/48 F-106A, Monogram/C&H Aero Conversion 1/48 F-106B, or with the upcoming Trumpeter 1/48 F-106A/B kits. The markings are nicely printed (by Cartograf) and provide all of the distinctive markings for one example.

My sincere thanks to Caracal Models for this review sample!
