: Wikipedia-The North American F-86 Sabre, sometimes called the Sabrejet, is 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 swept-wing Soviet MiG-15 in high-speed dogfights in the skies of the Korean War (1950–1953), fighting some of the earliest jet-to-jet battles in history. 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is also rated highly in comparison with fighters of other eras.[6] Although it was developed in the late 1940s and was outdated by the end of the 1950s, the Sabre proved versatile and adaptable and continued as a front-line fighter in numerous air forces.
NOTES: This is my attempt at making a light-bomber variant of the F-86. This is still in progress and there WILL be future updates to this build. It is a bit sluggish and also drifts to the left on takeoff. Instructions- Normal flight controls, AG7 and VTOL up for bomb bay. VTOL down for flaps CREDIT TO Erc90F4RU's FOR THE PLANE
