The horizontal tail was relocated to the top of the vertical stabilizer, giving the F-101 'Voodoo' its signature "T-tail". In late 1952, the mission of the F-101 was changed from penetration fighter to strategic fighter, which entailed equal emphasis on both the bomber escort mission and on nuclear weapons delivery. The new Voodoo mock-up with the reconfigured inlets, tail surfaces, landing gear, and dummy nuclear weapon was inspected by Air Force officials in March 1953.
