This Voodoo was manufactured by McDonnell Aircraft Corporation in St. Louis, Missouri in 1959. In February 1971, the Voodoo was transferred to the Canadian Armed Forces in a batch sent to replace earlier Voodoos in Canadian service. The Museum acquired this aircraft in 1984.
McDonnell
CF-101B Voodoo
Deliveries of F-101Bs to the United States Air Force began in 1959. After the Avro Canada Arrow was cancelled, the Voodoo began to replace the aging Avro Canada CF-100 in the RCAF in 1961. All CF-101B Voodoos were ex-USAF aircraft; none was built specifically for Canada.
