The North American F-100 Super Sabre was the first U.S. Air Force fighter capable of sustained supersonic flight in level attitude, marking a major leap into the jet-powered era. Introduced in the mid-1950s and used extensively during the Vietnam War, the F-100 flew thousands of combat missions as a close air-support and strike aircraft. Rugged, fast, and unmistakable with its sleek swept-wing design, the Super Sabre earned its place as one of the most iconic fighters of its generation.
The Collings Foundation’s F-100 preserves that legacy with a fully restored, flying example that continues to educate audiences on the jet’s historic role. Beginning in 2026, FIGHTERJETS INC. is proud to represent this legendary aircraft—bringing the unmistakable thunder of the Super Sabre back to airshow fans nationwide. From Vietnam-era heritage flights to dissimilar formations with FIGHTERJETS INC.’s MiG-17s, the F-100 will offer an unforgettable look at the speed, power, and history of America’s early supersonic fighters.
