Northrop first flew the F-89 Scorpion all-weather interceptor on August 16th, 1948. It was the first jet aircraft designed primarily for the interceptor role, the first to carry air-to-air nuclear weapons — the AIR-2 Genie missile — and one of the first to be equipped with air-to-air missiles. The F-89 Scorpion remained in U.S. service until the late 1960s.

About this aircraft

  • The F-89D is great at high altitudes. Against enemy bombers, it’s ready to launch rockets with a radio fuze, allowing it to hit the target even without a direct hit. The F-89D also has 16 HVAR rockets and 104 FFAR Mighty Mouse rockets.
