The results of the inspection and analysis of two F-106A aircraft that were struck by separate lightning strikes within a few minutes of each other are presented. Each aircraft sustained severe lightning strikes to the pitot booms, resulting in extensive damage to the pitot heater power harness, number 8 ground wire, and lightning suppressors, but there was no damage to either aircraft's electrical or avionic systems. A simulated lightning current of 226 kA and 3.8 million A(2)*S was required to reproduce the damage to the ground wires in the radomes. Photographs and detailed assessments of the damage are included.
