This picture is BOGUS. The following is from the history of the 5th FIS, (note the markings on the nose which alludes to the Spittin Kittens) and the name on the canopy.
In June 1948 the unit transitioned into F-82s. In the fall of 1949 the unit moved to McGuire AFB. In August of 1955 the 5th FIS designation was transferred to Suffolk County AFB. In the spring of 1957 the unit transitioned into F-102As. In February 1960 the 5th FIS moved to Minot AFB, North Dakota and transitioned into the F-106A. An interesting thing about the 5th, was their mascots, two live Linx kittens that produced several offspring which were kept on base. In the mid 80's the 5th FIS converted to the F-15 Eagles. The F-15s only flew over Minot until the spring of 1988, when the 5th FIS was deactivated. After the unit inactivated, their two Linx kitten mascotts were donated to the Roosevelt Park Zoo in Minot, where they're still living today.
note that the squadron moved to Minot in 1960 and were equipped with F-106s. Therefore an F-102 at Suffolk AFB in Ny in 1970 just didn't happen.
BTW I was stationed at Perrin AFB from 1966 to 69. Although I never met him, Wubya and I were on the same station since ALL F-102 pilots would have to take their training at Perrin AFB. The F-102s were phased out in 1972 and the base was closed. I do believe that the F-102s were sold to either Greece or Turkey!
Just a point of FYI clarity as you stated:
A) In August of 1955 the 5th FIS designation was transferred to Suffolk County AFB.
B) In the spring of 1957 the unit transitioned into F-102As.
C) In February 1960 the 5th FIS moved to Minot AFB, North Dakota
But as Post# 39 points out: Static display aircraft are provided by the Air Force out of storage areas
Take a look at posts 5 and 54 on this page
First oen is F-102 for sure
but post 54, look at the black stripe under GWN's shoulder...that looks pretty wide, maybe wide enough to go to the bottom insterad of the intake like post 5 would be
is post 54 an F-106?
