Competing directly with the F-105 Thunderchief, the supersonic F-107 Ultra Sabre never made it past the prototype stage. That didn’t keep Bernie from building Trumpeter’s 1/72 scale kit, though. He added seat belts as well as a pitot tube above the intake (shown in the box art but not included in the kit, he says). The plane is depicted as the second prototype, 55-5119, displayed at the National Museum of the United States Air Force, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, near Dayton, Ohio. Vince Pugliese photo.
