Hasegawa [PT13] 1:48 F-86F-30 SABRE U.S. AIR FORCE

Introducing the F-86 Sabre, the iconic jet-powered fighter that succeeded the legendary P-51 Mustang in the U.S. Air Force.

[The prototype XP-86 took its first flight on October 1st, 1947, paving the way for the first production version, the F-86A. Armed with six .50 cal. machine guns and the ability to carry bombs or rockets, the F-86A set the standard for all major models of the Sabre.]

In December of 1950, the F-86A saw combat in Korea while the F-86E was in production. With a powerful J47-GE-27 engine and a new moving tail, the F-86E replaced the F-86A in Korea by the end of 1952.

[Despite facing the superior MiG-15, the U.S. pilots with the F-86 had the edge in the skies. This combat experience led to the development of the definitive version, the F-86F. With a new `6-3` wing design and improved high-altitude performance, the F-86F dominated the skies with a remarkable 14 to 1 kill-to-loss ratio over the MiG.]
