James Thompson in the Korean War with the 51st Fighter Interceptor Wing, 39th Fighter Interceptor Squadron. The installer includes 6 high definition liveries, including a true-to-life rendition of “The Huff”, which was an F-86F-30 flown by Lt. The Milviz F-86 now supports a wide range of platforms, in single downloadable installer: Pilots will have to be mindful of how the aircraft is loaded, as adding or removing ordinance or fuel will have an effect on flight dynamics and handling characteristics! Quite in-depth, this can be used to set detailed payload options, radio configurations and ground equipment visibility. Our F-86F features a custom Aircraft Configuration Menu.
While we’ve created an aircraft in which you can still ‘jump in and fly’, those willing to take the time to thoroughly study the provided manual will find a lot to benefit from, along with satisfaction of fully mastering one of the early complex fighter jets! As well, we’ve also strived to closely match the systems of the F-86F30, and matched that with an extremely detailed model and exquisite high definition texturing. We’ve focused heavily on providing authentic flight dynamics that closely mimic the real aircraft, drawing on a wealth of pilot reports and available documentation. Great care and attention has been given to all areas of this model. With a maximum operating ceiling of 52,000 feet, a top speed of 695 miles per hour, and the ability to finally out-maneuver it’s primary foe, the F-86F-30 became the supreme day fighter of the world. five inch high boundary layer “fence” rounded out the changes. A significant refinement, this modification deleted the leading edge slats and added a new solid leading edge with six inches more chord at the root near the fuselage and three inches more length at the wing tip. The F-30 represented efforts to counter the high altitude turning radius of the Mig-15, with the famous ‘6-3’ wing being introduced. The F-86F itself was deemed the ‘ultimate MiG killer’ and was produced in large numbers, with some 2,540 airframes manufactured.
We’ve decided give our full focus, talents, and effort to a single variation: the F-86F-30
In response to the challenges posed by the formidable MiG-15 during the Korean War, a constant stream of improvements were designed and implemented in an effort to achieve superiority. We are extremely pleased to introduce to you our rendition of the renowned F-86 Sabre!Īs most F-86 enthusiasts will already know, there were many variations of this aircraft over the course of its service career. It was by far the most-produced Western jet fighter, with total production of all variants at 9,860 units. The Canadair Sabre added another 1,815 airframes, and the significantly redesigned CAC Sabre (sometimes known as the Avon Sabre or CAC CA-27), had a production run of 112. Variants were built in Canada and Australia. Its success led to an extended production run of more than 7,800 aircraft between 19, in the United States, Japan and Italy. Although it was developed in the late 1940s and was outdated by the end of the ’50s, the Sabre proved versatile and adaptable, and continued as a front-line fighter in numerous air forces until the last active operational examples were retired by the Bolivian Air Force in 1994. Produced by North American Aviation, the Sabre is best known as the United States’ first swept wing fighter which could counter the similarly-winged Soviet MiG-15 in high-speed dogfights over the skies of the Korean War (1950-53).Ĭonsidered one of the best and most important fighter aircraft in that war, the F-86 is also rated highly in comparison with fighters of other eras.
