The Lockheed F-104 Starfighter is a supersonic fighter aircraft created by Lockheed in the mid-1950s. The world's first production aircraft capable of breaking the Mach 2 barrier. The F-104 was created based on the experience of the Korean War of the 1950s according to the ultimate concept of achieving maximum flight speeds and altitudes. To suit these parameters, the design and all solutions of the aircraft were optimized, which made it a record jet for a long time. The F-104 became popular in the export market, with most fighters produced under license outside the United States. However, achievements in speed and altitude characteristics cost the Starfighter a significant deterioration in others, which became the cause of operational difficulties, many accidents and disasters.
