XFJ-2 Fury Milviz F-86 2024-06-07

This is the Milviz F-86F-30 repainted to represent the 3rd of 3 XFJ-2 Furies ordered by the U.S. Navy. This repaint is of XFJ-2, BuNo 133755. 755, like the other 2 XFJ-2s, was a "navalized F-86E-10." Things that all 3 XFJ-2s had in common were, navalized cockpit and instrumentation, standard F-86 main landing gear, and no folding wings. 754 and 755 were essentially alike, and both varied from 756 in that they both had arresting gear, catapult launch gear, extended nosed gear strut to increase carrier launch/takeoff angle of attack, and no armament. Model and Paintkit by MilViz. Repaint by Steve Bryant.
