Description

Ready Built. Not a kit. Easy Model 37100 Ready Model F-86F-30 South African Air Force No. 2. Comes with a stand.

South African F-86 Sabres were operated primarily by 2 Squadron “Flying Cheetahs” of the SAAF during the Korean War (1953) and for some years afterward, flying alongside U.S. forces in ground attack and intercept roles, initially on loan from the USAF and later including Canadian-built versions, marking a significant chapter in SAAF jet fighter history. These iconic swept-wing fighters, mostly the F-86F model, were crucial in supporting UN troops and engaging MiGs, with some surviving examples still on display in South Africa.
