2007 Canadair CF-104 Starfighter (CF-111, CL-90) oli Canadairi poolt litsentsi alusel Kanadas ehitatud Lockheed F-104 Starfighter ülehelikiirusega hävituslennuki modifitseeritud versioon. Seda kasutati peamiselt maapealse rünnaku lennukina, hoolimata sellest, et see oli mõeldud pealtkuulajaks. See teenis Kanada kuninglikes õhujõududes (RCAF) ja hiljem Kanada relvajõududes (CAF), kuni see asendati McDonnell Douglas CF-18 Hornetiga.

Lisainfo:

2007 Canadair CF-104 Starfighter was a Canadian-built version of the Lockheed F-104 Starfighter, a supersonic fighter aircraft that served with the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) and later the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) from 1961 to 1986. The CF-104 was designed as a low-level strike and reconnaissance aircraft, capable of carrying nuclear weapons and flying at speeds of up to Mach 2.2. The CF-104 was also known as the “Widowmaker” due to its high accident rate, which claimed the lives of 110 Canadian pilots. The CF-104 was replaced by the McDonnell Douglas CF-18 Hornet in the mid-1980s.
