North American F-86 Sabre

FU-142 ...
If 51-5142, this serial is for a North American T-6G Texan ! If 52-5142 this is a North American F-86F-30-NA Sabre ... but sold to Argentina in 1960!

Acting as a Lockheed U-2 ...

Fictional "Lockheed U-2"

A model kit supposed to represent a Lockheed U-2 (but fuselage is closer to a Supermarine Scimitar).

But the outside view is close to the real canopy.
