Each squadron that flew Delta Daggers was assigned two trainers as well to help pilots adjust to the type's demanding handling characteristics. A total of 111 TF-102s were ordered but only 63 were built. This one is in the colours of the 525th FIS, Bitburg AB, West Germany in 1962, although it appears that 54-1366 was with the 526th FIS (Ramstein) at this time, not being assigned to the 525th utill 1969 and following two more unit changes.
