1/48 FJ-4 Fury
The last of the naval Furies was the
FJ-4. Some people argue that the FJ-4 was the best version of the entire F-86
Sabre/FJ Fury series. The FJ-4 at first glance appears to be a modified F-86
Sabre that had first flown back in 1947. However, when one looks closer, it has
many differences and only the family ancestry is apparent.
The FJ-4 began its life in
June 1953 as company project NA-208 which called for two prototypes and as
company project NA-209 which was the production version. The Navy wanted a
maximum speed of Mach 0.95 and a combat altitude of 49,000 feet, requirements
never before having been met without using an
afterburner engine.
