Owned by the Cavanaugh Flight Museum, this is the only airworthy F9F Panther. This a/c is a Korean War veteran, having made two combat cruises. 123078 is in the markings of VF-721 as worn aboard the USS Kearsarge during 1952 - 1953. It was assigned to VF-151 aboard USS Boxer for its second cruise later in 1953. Restored to flying condition in 1993 by the museum.
