North American F-86 Sabre or most commonly known as “Sabrejet” is a transonic jet fighter aircraft developed by NAA (North American Aviation). This aircraft is known to b the first of the USA’s swept wing fighter jets that were able to counter against the Soviet Union’s swept wing MiG-15 in the high-speed dogfights that occurred during the Korean War from years in between 1950-1953. This aircraft as known to be one of the most important fighter jets of the Korean War era while it was also highly comparable to fighter jets of other eras as well. The aircraft was developed in the late 1940s but by the end of the 1950s, this aircraft was already outdated. The North American F-86 Sabre served in the military services of many of the world-renowned Air Forces until the last of the North American F-86 Sabre was relieved from service by Bolivian Air Force back in 1994. In between the years 1949 to 1956, more than 7800 of these North American F-86 Sabre aircraft were produced in countries like the USA, Japan, and Italy. Many variants of this aircraft were built by countries like Canada and Australia. The North American F-86 Sabre is regarded as one of the most produced Western Fighter Jet in the world with nearly a production number with its entire variants to reached at 9860 units. It was inspired by a German design:- The initial design of the North American F-86 Sabre was to be a straight-wing jet. However, aerospace engineers working on that NAA decided to change its design midway to add swept back wings. This change was incorporated in the design after the engineers were granted permission to access the data of Germany’s test on the Messerschmitt 262, which was the world’s first operational fighter jet. The first real challenger to Soviet Union’s MiG-15:- The very first fleet of North American F-86 Sabres was deployed to take part in the front line of the Korean War where the Russian jets appeared over the 38th Parallel. MiG-15s were easily able to intercept US fighter jets like P-51 Mustang, F9F Panther and the F-80 Shooting Star. With the presence of Sabres, the balance of the war shifted in the favor of West. The first ever MiG -15 aircraft shot down by a Sabre was back on December 17th, 1950. The pilot of that aircraft was Lieutenant Colonel Bruce Hinton. America’s best pilots flew North American F-86 Sabre:- Many of America’s best pilots flew the North American F-86 Sabre. Few of the top pilots to list here are as follows. Future Apollo 11 astronaut Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin Robert Hoover; the chase-plane pilot present when ‘Chuck Yeager’ broke the sound barrier Two highest scoring aces of the Korean War, Captain Joseph McConnell, and Colonel James Jabara Weapons:- Majority of the Sabre’s variants had six .50 caliber machine guns mounted on them, which was a standard weapon for a standard US aircraft during the World War II. Later, some models in both USA and other countries also had on the following weapons. 30-millimeter cannons Unguided Rockets Sidewinder Missiles 24 Mighty Mouse unguided rockets Nickname:- The North American F-86 Sabre was nicknamed as “Dog Sabre” and “The Sabre Dog”. The reason for these nicknames was that it was equipped with collision-course radar’ along with a ‘fire control system’ in its large nose. Soviet Union copied designs of North American F-86 Sabre:- The North American F-86 Sabre was able to gain the praise of the Soviet Union after this aircraft proved its mettle against the front line of Russian MiG-15 aircraft during the Korean War. They were so impressed that they even hoped to capture an intact F-86 Sabre to study its design. Due to this US air force made sure to destroy any fallen F-86 Sabre to prevent it from falling into the hands of the Soviet Union. Back in October 1951, Soviets were able to capture a lone Sabre aircraft which was forced to land on the stretch of the North Korea’s coast. The parts of this plane were sent down to U.S.S.R. for study and research purposes. They copied the components like the ‘coveted gyroscopic gunsight’. This technology was then incorporated in the production of the Russian fighter jets like MiG-17 which fought the American aircraft’s later in Vietnam War. North American F-86 Sabre fought in many wars:- Although North American F-86 Sabre is known for its service in the Korean War, it was also used in many other conflicts as well. Some of these are as follows. Taiwanese North American F-86 Sabre fought against the Chinese MiG-15s and MiG-17s in 1958 North American F-86 Sabres from Portuguese Air Force fought in the Guinea-Bissau War of Independence, which took part in between years 1963 to 1974 Pakistani North American F-86 Sabre models fought in 1965 against the Indian Gnats during the Indo-Pak War of 1965. These same aircraft fought each other again in the war of the region in 1971. Served for nearly 6 long decades:- According to production data, nearly 9800 of these North American F-86 Sabres were produced before the production line was finally halted. This aircraft served in the Air Force of more than 26 countries. The last of the North American F-86 Sabre was relieved from the service by the Bolivian Air Force in 1994. Conclusion:- All in all, this was one of the best fighter jets of the post World War II era that served their fighting prowess to nearly all the great military forces o the world. Its design allowed many nations to build their own variants of the North American F-86 Sabre. The aircraft after being relieved from the service is now mainly lying either in the Aviation Museums across the word or are being used in the air shows across the globe. The aircraft to this day shocks the audience with its razor-sharp swiftness.

Colaboración de nuestro amigo Jorge Lucio: El F-86 Sabre es un avión de caza a reacción fabricado por North American Aviation para la Fuerza Aérea de los Estados Unidos. El F-86 fue desarrollado en los años 1940 y es un de los aviones de combate más producidos y ha sido utilizado por fuerzas aéreas de más de 30 países. El enfrentamiento entre el Sabre y el Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15 durante la guerra de Corea es uno de los más clásicos en la historia de la aviación militar. El F-86 Sabre empezó como un rediseño del FJ-1 Fury. A fin de competir en un requerimiento emitido por la USAAF por un caza diurno que pudiese utilizarse también como caza de escolta y bombardeo en picado, North American presentó un diseño conocido como NA-140. A finales de 1944 se contrataron dos prototipos XP-86 del diseño NA-140, pero cuando al concluir la guerra se tuvo acceso a los datos referentes a los progresos realizados en Alemania en el campo de las alas en flecha, North American llegó a un acuerdo con la USAAF para rediseñar el XP-86 de manera que incorporase alas y empenajes caudales aflechados. Ello supuso un año de retraso, y no fue hasta el 1 de octubre de 1947 que alzó el vuelo el primer prototipo, propulsado para la ocasión por un turborreactor General Electric TG-180 (o J35-C-3), producido por Chevrolet de 1.700 kg de empuje; el 25 de abril de 1948, remotorizado con un turborreactor General Electric J47 y denominado YP-86A, este avión excedió la velocidad de Mach 1 en picado ligero. La primera versión de serie fue la P-86A, propulsada inialmente por un motor General Electric J-47-GE-1 de 2.200 kg de empuje y que voló por primera vez en mayo de 1948. Un mes después, el nuevo sistema de designaciones de la USAF convirtió al P-86A en el F-86A, y en 1949, cuando se le asigno el sobrenombre de "Sabre", el nuevo caza comenzó a entrar en servicio equipando a los Grupos de Caza nos. 1, 4 y 81 de la USAF; el primer ejemplar fua a manos del 94º Ecuadron del 1er. Grupo de Caza en febrero de 1949. La producción del F-86A ascendió a 554 aviones, la mayoría dotados con turborreactores J47-GE-3,-7, -9 o -13 de 2.360 kg de empuje. La versión siguiente, en orden cronológico, fue la F-86E, con estabilizadores enterizos, seguida por la F-86F que con el ala modificada, se produjo en 1.539 ejemplares. La variante más prolífica fue la de caza nocturna y todo tiempo F-86D (2.54 unidades), a la que siguieron la F-86H de cazabombardeo, con el motor más potente J73 (477 aparatos construidos), y la F-86K (120), variante simplificada de la F-86D. Bajo la designación TF-86 se montaron dos entrenadores con doble mando a partir de sendos F-86F, y la denominación F-86L fue aplicada a F-86D reconstruidos (827), que introducían mayor envergadura alar y aviónica mejorada. Los F-86B y F-86C no llegaron a entrar en producción. Además de los producidos por North American, Canadair Ltd de Montreal construyó 60 F-86E para la USAF, seguidos por 290 cazas similares Sabre Mk 2 (230 para la RCAF y 60 para el Programa Ayuda Mutua para la Defensa). La producción canadiense prosiguió con un Sabre Mk 3 para probar el motor autóctono Orenda, 438 Sabre Mk 4 para la RAF con motores General Electric, 370 Sabre Mk 5 con turborreactores Orenda 10 de 2.880 kg de empuje y 655 aviones Sabre Mk 6 con motor Orenda 14 de 3.300 kg de empuje. La compañía australiana Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation participó también en la producción del Sabre, modificando su célula para aceptar el cañón Aden de 30 mm (dos por aparato), y un motor Rolls-Royce Avon 26 de 3.400 kg de empuje, y construyendo para las RAAF 21 Sabre Mk 30 y 20 Sabre Mk 31, además de 69 cazas Sabre Mk 32 con motores de producción australiana. Fiat montó en Italia 221 aviones F-86K a partir de componentes suministrados por North American, y de igual modo comenzó la producción en Japón, donde Mitsubishi dirigió un grupo de empresas del país que primero montaron y más tarde construyeron un total de 300 aparatos F-86F y RF-86F. Un requerimiento por un cazabombardero para equipar a la US Navy y el Marine Corps en sustitución del North American FJ-1 Fury , resultó en un contrato por tres prototipos XFJ-2 Fury para evaluación. Estos aparatos eran básicamente similares a los F-86E$ de la USAF, pero incorporaban gancho de apontaje, aterrizador delantero alargado y enganches de catapultaje. Aparecieron a continuación 200 cazas FJ-2 con alas plegables, 538 FJ-3 con fuselaje ampliado y planta motriz más potente (Wright J65-W-2 o J65-W-4 de 3.650 kg y 3.470 kg de empuje, respectivamente), 152 ejemplares de la versión totalmente rediseñada FJ-4 (más tarde F.1E y dotada con un turborrector Wright j65-W-16A de 3.490 kg de empuje) y 222 de la versión mejorada de ataque FJ-4B (o AF-1E y que incorporaba una célula completamente nueva). Dos ejemplares de una inusual variante del FJ-4B fueron designados FJ-4F; empleados en evaluaciones, presentaban un motor cohete auxiliar El F-86 entró en combate por primera vez durante la guerra de Corea enfrentándose en numerosas ocasiones con los MiG-15 a los mandos de pilotos de nacionalidad china, norcoreana y soviética. Las cifras de aviones derribados varían según los bandos y es difícil determinar cuales fueron las exactas. En 1958, se produjeron varios combates entre F-86 de la China nacionalista y MiG-15 de la China comunista. Los F-86 de la aviación de Pakistán entraron en combate durante los conflictos cona la India de 1956 y 1971. Varios Sabres fueron usados en Argentina para contrarrestar un golpe de estado en 1962. Portugal usó sus Sabres durante la guerra de independencia de Guinea-Bissau entre 1961 y 1964.
