About this Group

The North American F-86 Sabre is possibly the best known jet fighter in the world. Designed and developed in the late 1940s, it is probably best known as the swept-wing fighter that could stand up to the Mig-15 in the Korean Conflict. Variants of the Sabre would eventually fly in the air forces of over 30 different countries. If you count the number of Sabres of all marks produced, including the FJ Fury and the planes license-built by Canada and Australia, there were over 9800 airframes produced, making it the most-produced western jet fighter in history.

The purpose of this group is to celebrate the F-86 Sabre and the FJ Fury, including all of its variants. This group is open to any variant of the F-86 Sabre and the FJ Fury, in any scale, flown by any country. This will not be a permanent group, and we would like all models to be completed and submitted by 30 September. So, head out to your garage and dig out all of your Sabres and Furies, dust off your guides to the differences between the variants, and join us in building models that celebrate this famous fighter.
