A process for the conversion of a feed rich in fused two-ring aromatic and fused two-ring hydroaromatic hydrocarbons, notably light cat cycle oil, furnance oils, coal liquids, tar sands liquids, shale oil liquids, and the like to high density jet fuels. Sulfur or nitrogen, or both are removed from said feed and a hydrodesulfurized/hydrodenitrogenated liquid product separated therefrom is hydrotreated in a second stage over a highly active fluorided Group VIII metal-on-alumina catalyst at conditions sufficient to selectively hydrogenate and saturate the fused two-ring aromatics and/or partially saturated fused two-ring hydroaromatics at high selectivity to naphthenes without any significant conversion thereof to lower molecular weight hydrocarbons. High density jet fuels having an API gravity ranging from about 25 to about 35, with a total aromatic content well below about 50 percent, preferably 5 percent to about 30 percent, are produced.
