  13. I've enjoyed reading about this aircraft here are a few highlights; Designed to a challenging 1945 specification for radar-guided interception at night or in bad weather with a speed over 500mph and at 40,000ft and 125 miles from it's home carrier. Despite it's uninspiring bulk it was lighter and smaller than the Air Force's contemporary F-89 Scorpion and was seriously studied as an alternative. With four drop tanks it had a sortie time of seven hours! On Nov 3rd, 1952 and F3D-2 of VMF(N)-513 won the first ever night jet v. jet combat downing a Yak-15 over Korea.

  21. I remember being given the standard TK answer of "no time, no money" when I asked why we couldn't have a Third Wire Mustang era pilot.
