More about the book
Focusing on the Republic XF-103's development, this volume details its conception in the late 1940s as a high-speed interceptor designed to counter Soviet bombers. Despite its advanced Mach 3 capabilities, the XF-103 was ultimately unsuccessful in the USAF MX-1554 competition and transitioned to a research program before cancellation in 1959 due to cost and evolving strategic threats. The book includes photographs, technical drawings, and performance charts, with a meticulous approach to measurement accuracy throughout the chapters.
