Korean War
In June 1950 the USAF’s primary day superiority fighter in the Far East was the straight-wing jet F-80 (upper left). The propeller-driven F-82 (upper right) was the primary night fighter. The faster, swept-wing F-86 Sabre (lower left) took over the day fighter role from the F-80 in late 1950, while the jet-powered F-94 (lower right) replaced the F-82 in 1951. (U.S. Air Force photo)
