FSX Convair F-106A Delta Dart 'Geiger Tiger'

Convair F-106A Delta Dart “Geiger Tiger” repaint captures a 498th Fighter Interceptor Squadron jet from Geiger AFB in the early 1960s, bringing period-correct USAF markings to your hangar. Designed for FSX, it requires the Virtavia F-106A and includes a crisp exterior livery that suits interceptor-era flights.

Textures only for the Virtavia F-106A for FSX. Represents an aircraft from the US Air Force 498th Fighter Interceptor Squadron stationed at Geiger AFB (Spokane) in the early 1960's. The 498th was the first operational squadron with the Six-Pack. They did not have the IR dome and refueling housing on these aircraft. The Virtavia model represents a later block number. If anyone has photos of a 498th Geiger Tiger I would love to see them.
