F-106A 56-0451 in its 4th display painted version at Wright-Patterson AFB, OH. Photo of 56-0451 after being repainted to 59-0082 markings of 49th FIS Griffiss AFB NY. Note the non J-75-P-17 test engine is still installed, no Infra-red hump in front of canopy, no In-flight refueling receptacle behind the canopy on the spine, no Data-Link antennas on bottom rear of the fuselage, etc. Selfridge had to remove the engine before transporting from W/P to Selfridge, which was probably a ruse by WPAFB as the old original YJ75-P-1 or -9 test engine wasn't used in the QF-106 drones.
