Grumman F9F Panther, the underpowered jet that became the US Navy’s first Korean War fighter
The F9F Panther began as an underpowered experiment, then transformed into the Navy’s first true carrier jet fighter thanks to the Rolls-Royce Nene and Grumman’s rugged design. From ground attack to a declassified 7 vs 1 MiG-15 battle, this episode follows how the Panther earned its place in early jet combat history.

Our Grumman F9F Panther restoration is underway! During the Korean War, it was used in strikes by both Navy and Marine squadrons and flew 78,000 sorties. A total of 1,382 F9Fs were built before evolving into the Grumman F-9 Cougar. The F9F was notably flown by future astronauts Neil Armstrong and John Glenn and by Boston Red Sox all-star Ted Williams. They were withdrawn from front-line service in 1956, and from Reserve service in 1958. Follow along to see her full restoration process! | Warhawk

We are restoring our Grumman F9F Panther! 😁 The F9F was notably flown by future astronauts Neil Armstrong and John Glenn and by Boston Red Sox all-star Ted Williams. They were withdrawn from front-line service in 1956, and from Reserve service in 1958. The Panther was the first jet aircraft used by the Navy’s Blue Angels from 1950 to 1954. #thingstodoinboise #aviationlife #aviationworld #boisebusiness #avaitionlovers #aviation_lovers #pilots #visitidaho #flying #visitboise #aviationenthusiast |
