CF-100 "Canuck"
The Peterson Air and Space Museum's CF-100 "Canuck" aircraft gleams from a new coat of paint after a recent restoration. The Canadian-built CF-100 served Canada as a two-seat, all-weather jet fighter from 1952 to 1981, providing air defense of the North American continent from enemy bomber attack. Canucks also equipped Canadian fighter squadrons based in Europe supporting the NATO alliance. It remains the only Canadian-designed and built fighter aircraft to enter mass production.
