The Northrop F-15 Reporter (later RF-61) was an unarmed photographic reconnaissance aircraft. Based on the Northrop P-61 Black Widow night fighter it was the last piston-powered photo-reconnaissance aircraft designed and produced for the United States Air Force. Though produced in limited quantities and with a relatively short service life the F-15’s aerial photographs of the Korean Peninsula would prove vital in 1950 when North Korea invaded the south.
