The CF-100 Canuck was an all-weather interceptor used by the RCAF during the cold war and later in the electronic warfare role. They were all withdrawn from service in 1980. This one started out as a Mk 4B but was eventually upgraded to Mk 5D. Now it is on display at the Alberta Aviation Museum in Edmonton at the now closed Edmonton Municipal Airport.
