File Name: NF-104A File Submitter: starfighter2 File Submitted: 28 Feb 2008 File Category: F-104 File Version: 1.00 Website: No Information In 1963, three ex-USAF F-104As (56-756, -760, and -762) were taken out of storage at Davis Monthan AFB and modified as NF-104A aerospace training aircraft. All of the military equipment was removed and the original F-104A vertical fin was replaced by the larger fin that was used on the F-104G. The wingspan was increased by four feet (to 25.94 feet) and a set of hydrogen peroxide control thrusters were mounted at the nose, tail, and wingtips. A 6000 pound thrust Rocketdyne LR121/AR-2-NA-1 auxiliary rocket engine was mounted on the tail above the jet exhaust pipe. This rocket engine could be throttled from 3000 to 6000 pounds of thrust, and the burn time was about 105 seconds. The first NF-104A was delivered on October 1, 1963, with the other two following a month later. They were operated by the Aerospace Research Pilot School at Edwards AFB, which was commanded at that time by Colonel Charles E. "Chuck" Yeager. On December 6, 1963, the first NF-104A set an unofficial world altitude record of 118,860 feet for aircraft taking off under their own power. The official record at that time was 113,829 feet, set by the Mikoyan/Gurevich Ye-66A, an experimental version of the MiG-21 Fishbed. Later, the same NF-104A flown by Major R. W. Smith reached an altitude of 120,800 feet. On December 10, 1963, the second NF-104A (56-762), with Chuck Yeager at the controls, went out of control at an altitude of 104,000 feet and fell in a flat spin to 11,000 feet. Yeager managed to eject successfully at that altitude, although he was badly burned on his face by the rocket motor of his ejector seat. The aircraft was destroyed in the ensuing crash. An investigation later showed that the cause of the crash was a spin that resulted from excessive angle of attack and lack of aircraft response. The excessive angle of attack was not caused by pilot input but by a gyroscopic condition set up by the J79 engine spooling after shut down for the rocket-powered zoom climb phase. So it wasn't Chuck's fault. In June of 1971, the third NF-104A, with Capt. Howard C. Thompson at the controls, suffered an inflight explosion of its rocket motor. Although Thompson was able to land safely, the aircraft's rocket motor and half its rudder were blown away. Since the program was about to end in any case, this aircraft was retired. The number one NF-104A is currently on display on top of aa pylon in front of the USAF Test Pilot School. Install> 1. Copy the "NF-104A" folder to your Strike Fighters\Objects\Aircraft folder. 2. Also copy 2 files raketa7.bmp raketa.LOD to your Strike Fighters\Objects\Aircraft folder. 3. Effects goes to your > Strike Fighters\Effects folder 4.

Phantom II pylons project
starfighter2 replied to mppd's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Regarding truth mppd.... I do not trust instantly to everything what I read in books or Net. Communist past of my Country learned me that(thrust no one). I do not trust to West sources either, often they are "not complete" or "partly classified". Truth is always "something in the middle". Cheers and keep up with excellent work. EDIT > Just make that damn LAU-7 pylons -

Hmmm I think that attempt to hit somethin' with AIM-4 (USAF Phantoms - tail hooked), will result with LOL from MiG-17/19/21 pilot..... unless you flyin' F-102 and aim ground troops with them (known F-102 engagement armed with AIM-4). :yes: hehe........... -
