The F9F Panther was Grumman’s first production jet fighter, used extensively during the Korean War. It proved one of the United States Navy’s first successful carrier-born jet fighters and was the first jet fighter to be used by the Blue Angels aerobatics display team.
The F9F would remain the primary US Navy and USMC jet fighter and ground-attack aircraft of the Korean War, flying around 78,000 sorties in total. The Panther claimed the first US Navy aerial victory of the war claiming a prop-powered Yak-9 in July 1950.
In one little-known instance, a single Panther shot down four Mig-15s in a single 35 minute period, a unique feat for pilot Lt Royce Williams. This is in spite of the Panther’s relatively poor speed when compared to the nimble MiGs.
Other notable pilots of Panthers in Korea include first man on the moon, Neil Armstrong (who in fact bailed out during a combat mission when his aircraft was brought down by wire strung out across a valley), as well as fellow astronaut John Glenn and baseball star Ted Williams.

We are now offering an IOSS and DDP service (Delivery Duties Paid) to all customers in the EU (European Union).
This means that no VAT value and no handling fees for VAT value charged will be demanded to customers at delivery, because we already took care of them.
Please be aware that DDP service would not cover for additional fees or charges - other than VAT - that the local custom regulations might decide to apply on the goods - these are solely the responsibility of the customer.
DDP service would not be applied on shipments with a PO Box destination or sent via Royal Mail: in these cases Duties and Handling fees will possibly be requested at the time of delivery and these are solely the responsibility of the customer.
DDP service is not available for Stockists customers who place their online orders using their special and personal discount code; these parcels would be sent only via DDU (Delivery Duty Unpaid).
Whether you want to know when your order will arrive or which hats your Napoleonic troops should be wearing, our customer service team can help!
