Historical description:

The North American F-100D Super Sabre is an American jet fighter-bomber primarily used by the United States Air Force. The F-100D was widely operated during the Cold War, including in numerous air operations during the Vietnam War (1954–1971). Equipped with advanced navigation systems for its time, the F-100D required meticulous attention to pilot safety, hence the crucial role of high-quality seatbelts in the cockpit.
