the north american f-100 super sabre was a supersonic jet fighter aircraft that served with the united states air force (usaf) from 1954 to 1971 and with the air national guard (ang) until 1979. the first of the century series collection of usaf jet fighters, it was the first usaf fighter capable of supersonic speed in level flight. the f-100 was originally designed by north american aviation as a higher performance follow-on to the f-86 sabre air superiority fighter.

adapted as a fighter bomber, the f-100 would be supplanted by the mach 2 class f-105 thunderchief for strike missions over north vietnam. the f-100 flew extensively over south vietnam as the air force's primary close air support jet until replaced by the more efficient subsonic ltv a-7 corsair ii. the f-100 also served in other nato air forces and with other u.s. allies. in its later life, it was often referred to as \"the hun,\" a shortened version of \"one hundred.\"

the f-100a officially entered usaf service on 27 september 1954 with 479th fighter wing at george afb, california. by 10 november 1954, the f-100as suffered six major accidents due to flight instability, structural failures, and hydraulic system failures, prompting the air force to ground the entire fleet until february 1955. the 479th finally became operational in september 1955. due to ongoing problems, the air force began phasing out the f-100a in 1958, with the last aircraft leaving active duty in 1961. by that time, 47 aircraft were lost in major accidents. escalating tension due to construction of the berlin wall in august 1961 forced the usaf to recall the f-100as into active service in early 1962. the aircraft was finally retired in 1970.

the tac request for a fighter-bomber was addressed with the f-100c which flew in march 1954 and entered service on 14 july 1955 with the 450th fighter wing, foster afb, texas. operational testing in 1955 revealed that the f-100c was at best an interim solution, sharing all the vices of the f-100a. the uprated j57-p-21 engine boosted performance but continued to suffer from compressor stalls. on a positive note, the f-100c was considered an excellent platform for nuclear toss bombing because of its high top speed. the inertia coupling problem was more or less addressed with installation of a yaw damper in the 146th f-100c, later retrofitted to earlier aircraft. a pitch damper was added starting with the 301st f-100c, at a cost of us$10,000 per aircraft.
