Question on the F-102:

When the pilot went to fire missiles, he presumably had to open the
missile-bay doors.

Could this be done at supersonic speeds, or what speed did he have to
slow to?

According to my copy of the F-102A Dash One, there are no limits on
opening the bay doors that don't apply to the rest of teh airplane.

Also, the missile bay doors themselves housed the F-102's 24 2.75-inch
folding fin rockets.
