Historical and Technical Information:

The North American F-86 Sabre F.4 was one of the most important jet fighters of the post-war period. The F.4 version, produced from the early 1950s, introduced numerous improvements and was widely used by Western air forces. The aircraft gained fame, above all, for its combat during the Korean War, as well as through numerous exercises and confrontations during the Cold War era. The model featured a distinctive silhouette thanks to its swept wings and was equipped with advanced avionics for its time.
