Chuck Yeager’s Air Combat Aircraft

Ac notesOne of the Allied fighters which helped turn the tide over Europe.

Ac notesTotal production of the F-86 exceeded that of any fixed-wing fighter at a staggering 9,502.

Ac notesThe MiG-15 out-turned, out-climbed and had a higher service ceiling than the North American F-86K Sabre. Also - the original NATO reporting name was "Falcon" - it would be interesting to get the story behind changing the name from that of a 'Bird of Prey' to a 'block of wood'!
