This is an original Korean War USAF F-86 Sabre jet fighter tube assembly in original packaging. The F-86 was the first successful fighter to take on the famous MIG-17 during the Korean War. With its 6 50 cal. machine guns in the nose the F-86 was a mean fighting machine. The Sabre Jet ended the Korean War with a very high kill ratio against the MIG-17. Today the F-86 is a prized warbird and several still fly in civilian hands.
