& COUGAR
First flown in 1947 the
F9F Panther was the first jet fighter for Grumman,
and the second for the US Navy. The Panther saw extensive service in
the Korean war and scored the first US Navy air kill.
After fears about the
aircraft performance compared to the MIG
opponents, a swept-wing version was quickly developed. The US
Navy considered this a variant and it retained the F9F designation.
The swept-wing variant proved easier to land on aircraft carriers
but remained stubbornly subsonic.
Over 1300 examples of
all variants were produced. The only export
customer was Argentina.
We offer one CD on each
of these basic aircraft types.
