On display at the Cradle of Aviation Museum. Successor to the F9F Panther, this F9F-7 was one of 168 built that was powered by the Allison J33 engine. Most of these were refitted with the Pratt & Whitney J48 and redesignated as F-9H. This photo is copyright © Arjun Sarup, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
