FJ-2 Fury

Sword 1/72.

The North American FJ-2 and FJ-3 Fury are a series of swept-wing carrier-capable fighters for the United States Navy and Marine Corps. The FJ-2 resulted from an effort to navalize the North American F-86 Sabre operated by the United States Air Force.
These aircraft feature folding wings, and a longer nose landing strut
designed to increase angle of attack upon launch and to accommodate a
longer oleo to absorb the shock of hard landings on an aircraft carrier deck.

(The later FJ-4 was again, a complete structural redesign of the FJ-3). The FJ-2 was one of the aircraft used to evaluate the first steam catapult on a US Navy aircraft-carrier
