---Description (From Wikipedia)---
The North American F-86 Sabre, sometimes called the Sabrejet, was a transonic jet fighter aircraft. Produced by North American Aviation, the Sabre is best known as the United States' first swept wing fighter that could counter the similarly-winged Soviet MiG-15 in high-speed dogfights over the skies of the Korean War (1950–1953). Considered one of the best and most important fighter aircraft in that war, the F-86 is also rated highly in comparison with fighters of other eras.[3] Although it was developed in the late 1940s and was outdated by the end of the '50s, the Sabre proved versatile and adaptable, and continued as a front-line fighter in numerous air forces until the last active operational examples were retired by the Bolivian Air Force in 1994.
Its success led to an extended production run of more than 7,800 aircraft between 1949 and 1956, in the United States, Japan and Italy. Variants were built in Canada and Australia. The Canadair Sabre added another 1,815 airframes, and the significantly redesigned CAC Sabre (sometimes known as the Avon Sabre or CAC CA-27), had a production run of 112. The Sabre was by far the most-produced Western jet fighter, with total production of all variants at 9,860 units.[1]

Yeah, I know the inlet is no accurate but the primary engine needs air, and I don't know of a way to cheat out of that one . The landing gear yes I know, I was going to use the wing gears but to me they look ugly but I think the wings look ok.
@Supercraft888 the wings are smaller and the intake is too. the rear landing gears are at the base of the wings but the frontal landing gear is fine. get rid of the giant engine at the front, this thing goes about 350 mph.
@HKAerodynamics
What do to think I could change?
@HKAerodynamics
Ok, sure, will try again
Uh... I look at a Sabre jet every single week and this doesn't look anything like it. Make a detailed version! Yeah!
Wow that was fast!
