Historical Background of the F-107A Ultra Sabre

The North American F-107A Ultra Sabre is a prototype supersonic fighter-bomber developed in the mid-1950s by North American Aviation. The aircraft's first flight took place in 1956. The Ultra Sabre was designed as a potential successor to the famous F-100 Super Sabre and was primarily used for testing higher speed concepts and original aerodynamic solutions, such as the distinctive air intake located above the fuselage, just behind the cockpit.

Ultimately, only three F-107A units were built, used for test purposes and never put into mass production. These planes participated in advanced testing for the US Air Force during the Cold War period. Today, they survive as museum exhibits.
