The F-102 Delta Dagger flown by G.W. Bush was known as a Widowmaker.
Engine problems during Takeoff with no hope of recovery.
Then again, the F-104 Starfighter wasn’t just a Widowmaker, it was a Serial Killer.
Yeah, we palmed the F104 off on the Luftwaffe. Made no friends doing that! Killed about as many German pilots as the RAF!

It certainly was to the Luftwaffe. 292 crashed.
