Beginning its service to the country in 1956, its main purpose was to intercept enemy aircraft in U.S. air space, mainly of potential Soviet bomber fleets during the Cold War. However, due to the project being troubled, the aircraft was soon replaced by the F-101 Voodoo and F-4 Phantom II in the intercept role and thus many of the aircraft were transferred to the United States National Guard for duty by the mid to late 1960s. Because the Delta Dagger fell short of its goals, improvements were being made for the F-102B. Eventually the F-102B upon completion became an entirely new aircraft known as the F-106 Delta Dart. The aircraft left service altogether in 1976. A total of 899 F-102A models were built and 375 were transferred to the Air Guard units.
