The Dakota Territory Air Museum in Minot, N.D., will receive an F-106 Delta Dart fighter-interceptor for display. The Minot Daily News reports that museum officials hope to receive the aircraft before the end of the year. The F-106 has been in storage in the Air Force’s aircraft boneyard at Davis-Monthan AFB, Ariz. The Air Force must demilitarize the aircraft before its shipment via truck to the museum.

The 5th Fighter Interceptor Squadron operated them until the mid 1980s when the unit converted to flying F-15s.
