The Model and Historical Background

The McDonnell F-101 Voodoo is an American interceptor fighter that entered service in the 1950s. Used mainly by the United States Air Force (USAF), reconnaissance variants F-101R were also operated by Canada. The aircraft participated in, among other things, patrolling airspace during the Cold War, and it was one of the pillars of the American air defense system from the late 1950s to the mid-1970s. It featured innovative aerodynamic solutions, including an advanced air intake system for the engines, whose realistic reproduction significantly enhances the authenticity of the model.
