A technical plan of the Convair F-106 Delta Dart, plotted pen to paper, line by line, on 250 g/m² paper, 11 × 17 in. A physical tip presses into the paper and lays down real ink, one pass at a time. On the back, a serial number and date, plotted in UV ink in the same pass as the drawing.

The plan of the F-106 exists as a file, everywhere. What doesn't exist everywhere is a copy someone can point to and say who drew it, where, on what day, and under what serial number.

The Convair F-106 Delta Dart was the U.S. Air Force's primary all-weather interceptor from 1959 to 1988, built to intercept Soviet bombers at supersonic speed using its delta wing and a single Pratt & Whitney J75 engine. Its internal weapons bay could carry the AIR-2A Genie — an unguided rocket tipped with a 1.5-kiloton nuclear warhead, designed to destroy an entire bomber formation with one shot. 340 were built. The type was retired from Air National Guard service in 1988, and many surviving airframes were later converted into QF-106 target drones. This blueprint captures its pure delta-wing planform, a shape chosen for supersonic stability over maneuverability.

At a Glance

  • ◆35,000 lb loaded weight
  • ◆First flew December 26, 1956
  • ◆340 built for the USAF
  • ◆Carried a nuclear air-to-air rocket
  • ◆Retired from service in 1988

Each piece is physically plotted by the studio's precision robot in Québec City, using Stabilo® Fineliners and Sakura® Gelly Roll inks on 250 gsm (120 lb) stock — stroke by stroke, never printed. A physical tip presses into the paper and lays down real ink. The result is a tactile, hand-plotted finish — never printed.

Hidden signature

The CodeInk signature glowing under UV light on the back of a plotted piece

Real footage — an early production piece, shown under blacklight.

A signature only UV light reveals

On the back of every piece, in the same pass as the drawing, we plot a signature invisible under normal light — codeink.art, the piece's name and serial number, the year, and Québec. Shine a blacklight on it and it glows.

“A pure delta wing has no horizontal tail — the whole trailing edge does double duty as both wing and control surface. Drawing it means there's no separate elevator to simplify or omit; the shape itself is the entire argument for how the aircraft flies.”

— Carlos, CodeInk.art, Québec

Open production, no duplicates

Every F-106 piece is plotted after you order it — the pen wears down differently each pass, ink density shifts, and no two lines close exactly the same way. Nothing is corrected or hidden.

PERFECTLY imperfect.
