Only 21 two-seater F-104Ds were produced for the USAF, this one spending most of its service life with the Air Force Flight Test Center at Edwards AFB, CA where it was used in support of the X-15 program in the early and mid-1960s. It was on show at the Armament Museum by 1979 as shown here This photo is copyright © Richard Vandervord, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
