Delivered to the US Navy as F8U-1 144427. Redesignated as an F-8A in 1962. Converted to a DF-8A then to a DF-8F in 1963. Stored at Davis-Monthan AFB in 1970. To the Pima Air Museum in 1975. Looks like it had been recently been restored.

In the early 1960s, a dozen F-8As were converted to DF-8F drone controllers for use on the Navy's various target ranges. This one retains the 1964 colours of Utility Squadron 8 (VU-8), NAS Roosevelt Roads, Puerto Rico. The last of the Crusaders left navy service in 1987.
