North American built the museum's F-100D in 1957. The airplane served during several "crises" in its career, being deployed during the Lebanon Crisis in 1958, the Berlin Crisis in 1961, and the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962. In 1965 the Air Force transferred it to Lowry AFB as a training airframe. The F-100D is on loan to Wings Over the Rockies from the National Museum of the US Air Force.
