The F9F/F-9 Cougar was an aircraft carrier-based fighter jet built for the United States Navy. Based on the earlier F9F Panther, the Cougar replaced the Panther's straight wing with a more modern swept wing. The Navy considered the Cougar an updated version of the Panther despite having a different official name, and thus Cougars started off from F9F-6 upwards.
This stunning F9F-8 Cougar comes with a realistic high detail finish & true-scale outline that looks just like the real thing! Featuring a superbly finished composite fuselage and built-up wing/tail section that is expertly factory covered with high quality covering film, this Cougar is a real looker that is bound to draw looks of admiration at your favorite flying site. Functional air brakes on the bottom of the fuselage add to the scale realism of this model and the high level of detail that is incorporated into the paint scheme make this Cougar a great choice for the scale enthusiast, the chosen scheme is also ideal for orientation.
The Cougar is supplied with a fixed under-carriage set but is also retract ready, for those flying off long grass, fitting the usual bungee launch system will present no problems.
