AIRFIX 1/48 NORTH AMERICAN F-86F SABRE

Airfix 1/48 North American F-86F Sabre

One of the most important aircraft of the early jet era, the North American F-86 Sabre was in many ways a jet powered version of the company’s hugely successful P-51D Mustang from WWII and an aircraft which made full use of captured German aerodynamic research material.

Featuring a distinctive 35-degree wing sweep, the Sabre also incorporated three nose-mounted .50 calibre machine guns positioned on either side of the aircraft’s nose, with this jet-powered gunslinger sharing many design philosophies with its famous piston-powered predecessor.

On entering service with the U.S Air Force in 1949, the North American F-86 Sabre would have the distinction of not only being America’s first swept wing fighter, but also the fastest fighter aircraft in the world at that time, a true aviation classic.
