The Parasite Fighter concept was born in WWI, rediscovered between the wars and developed during the Cold War. Parasite aircraft are smaller fighter aircraft conveyed by a bomber to an operational area, then deployed to protect the larger aircraft. The F9C Sparrowhawks on the Akron are the most famous example, but the USAF attempted to field parasite fighters well into the jet age (See the XF-85 "Goblin"), until the idea was made obsolete by advances in mid-air refueling Wwii Fighter Planes, Boeing Aircraft, Drones, Navy Aircraft Carrier, Wwii Fighters, Experimental Aircraft, Jet Age
