Air Force Legends 205
A silver streak flashes over the Air Force Base at Muroc, California. The slim, shark-bellied McDonnell XF-88 is unveiled as another advance in America's air mastery.
The twin-jet penetration fighter is capable of operating deep inside enemy territory–acting as an escort for heavy bombers or serving as a dual purpose fighter-bomber.
