Six Shooter

The last two installments of this-here little cyber-rag have got us hunting for pix of the 'Six'. And today we present a couple'a beauties taken on June 28th, 1985 showing F-106A 59-0024 of the 49th Fighter Interceptor Squadron which flew out of Griffiss AFB at Rome, NY from 1959 to 1987.

The pictured 'Six' is equipped with an M61A1 20mm cannon, one of a dozen supplied to the 49th FIS. Read more about this interesting mod for the F-106 HERE.

Enjoy...
