A bit about the 102 and 106.

F-106 Delta Dart - Specifications

The F-106 was quite a bit faster than the Lightning and did it on a single engine.....1535 mph with a climb rate of 29,000 fpm and a range of 2,700 miles.

The Lightning stats show 1300 mph, climb rate of 20,000 fpm, and a range of 855 miles.
