The Douglas F4D-1 Skyray was a U.S. Navy carrier-based interceptor that first flew in 1951. With its stunning delta-wing design, it was the Navy's first supersonic-capable fighter and went on to set new world records for airspeed and rate of climb. The Skyray's distinctive shape and impressive performance make it a true icon of 1950s jet aviation.
