Mark Kettle 1 Posted July 14, 2019 Author Share Posted July 14, 2019 Check out the start-up and text on the wing below, and it's powered by a Rolls Royce engine. CAC Avon Sabre A94-983 Flight Display at Temora Invitational Scale Classic 2011 on Saturday 5th November. This it is a CAC-27, it has North American F-86E wings (hard leading edges). The landing gear, the entire empennage, canopy, and overall design is that of an NAA F-86 Sabre Jet. It was modified only to accommodate the larger engine, just like the Canadair Models. It's Sabre in it's best iteration The CA-27/Mk32 used a much more powerful Rolls Royce RA-7 engine and the CA-27 Sabre used 2 Aden 30mm revolver cannon (one on each side), and big difference to the F-86F that used 6 Browning .50BMG machine guns (3 on each side of the nose) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Kettle 1 Posted July 15, 2019 Author Share Posted July 15, 2019 The CAC Sabre, sometimes known as the Avon Sabre or CA-27, Is an Australian variant of the North American Aviation F-86F Sabre fighter aircraft. The F-86F was redesigned and built by the Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation (CAC). Equipping five RAAF squadrons, the type saw action in the Malayan Emergency in the late 1950s, and was employed for air defence in Malaysia and Thailand in the 1960s. Ex-RAAF models also saw service with the Royal Malaysian Air Force and the Indonesian Air Force. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Kettle 1 Posted July 16, 2019 Author Share Posted July 16, 2019 Not real live footage video of a F86, but a computer simulation video which is quite good. DCS world: F-86F fighter - ( Interceptor ? ) Some stills from the video. The 'rock- music' at minute 8.00 into the mission is quite good.

Mark Kettle 1 Posted July 30, 2019 Author Share Posted July 30, 2019 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 America's first swept wing fighter which could counter the similarly-winged Soviet MiG-15 in high speed dogfights over the skies of the Korean War. Considered one of the best and most important fighter aircraft in the Korean War, the F-86 is also rated highly in comparison with fighters of other eras. History of a Dogfighter Although it was developed in the late 1940s and was outdated by the end of the 1950s, the Sabre proved versatile and adaptable, and continued as a front-line fighter in numerous air forces until the last active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. It was by far the most-produced Western jet fighter, with total production of all variants at 9,860 units. The F-86A set its first official world speed record of 670 miles per hour (1,080 km/h) in September 1948. Several people involved with the development of the F-86, including the chief aerodynamicist for the project and one of its other test pilots, claimed that North American test pilot George Welch had unofficially broken the sound barrier in a dive with the XP-86 while on a test flight on 1 October 1947.[20] Chuck Yeager broke the sound barrier on 14 October 1947 in the rocket-propelled Bell X-1 during level flight, making it the first true supersonic aircraft. Five years later, on 18 May 1953, Jacqueline Cochran became the first woman to break the sound barrier, flying a "one-off" Canadian-built F-86 Sabre Mk 3, alongside Chuck Yeager.
