EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the power and prowess of the Northrop F-89J Scorpion, as seen in the ranks of the Iowa Air National Guard's 124th Fighter Interceptor Squadron. The F-89J, with the serial number 53-(O-3)2662, is an upgraded version of the original Northrop F-89D-70-NO Scorpion. The 'O' designation signifies that this aircraft is obsolete, but its historical significance remains undiminished. Built in the late 1940s, the F-89 Scorpion was a single-engine, all-weather interceptor designed to counter the Soviet threat during the Cold War. This particular aircraft was upgraded to the F-89J standard, which enabled it to carry the Douglas MB-1 Genie, an air-to-air unguided missile with a nuclear warhead. The AIR-2 Genie, as it was previously known, was a 1.5 kt W25 nuclear warhead rocket, designed to deliver a powerful punch against enemy aircraft. The F-89J Scorpion in this photograph, taken circa 1960, is a testament to the technological advancements of the time and the dedication of the men and women who served in the Iowa Air National Guard. The 124th Fighter Interceptor Squadron, with its proud history and commitment to protecting the skies, continues to uphold the legacy of the Northrop F-89J Scorpion and the brave pilots who flew it.
