While the F-101B is obviously the dedicated interceptor, the F-101A/C can be used in the interceptor role. The SAC says so.
F-101A and F-101B are going to be either premium or event. Be prepared for that.

Yeah, interception was the initial point of the F-101, conversion to the tactical strike role came later
Where CF-101 for Britain?

TeChniCaLly a nuk’ler bomb never reaches the ground. So even the C was “not a pound for air to ground”.

CF-101 is F-101B, so you gotta wait until they introduce the F-101B for the US and Britain.

Issue there is you’re swapping guns for 6x mixed AIM-4A/-4C (SARH/IR) on the early F-101B, or TWO AIM-4D IR as your only non-nuclear air-to-air weapon on the later F-101B/CF-101B. While opinions differ, those missiles would certainly all be less performant than the later F-106-carried versions of the AIM-4 (-4F/-4G) that are now in game. For starters, it’s a 2.7 kg warhead, instead of a 5 kg one.
Absent their Genie rockets, the interceptor F-101s were just not particularly viable air-to-air platforms, even for their day.

Will we get a F-101 wallpaper?
If I remember this plane very similar to mig19 but without the able to turn part. Not sure why it is the same rating…
Will be fun if 9.0 it’s acceleration is insane
Here’s hoping they will add the F-101-B in the near future.
