I'm not sure there's an easy tsolution to being accurate about which airframe was developed from which. THe FJ led to the XP-86 which led to the F-86A, the F-86E led to the FJ-2 and 3, and the FJ-4 has no real F-86 equivilent, being a derivitive of the FJ-3. About the only way to be really clear about it is to split the straight wing FJ-1 off from the swept wings, but there really isn't enough content as yet to do that. Any thoughts/suggestions? - BillCJ 20:27, 14 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The FJ-1 looks completely different to the F-86/FJ-2 and subsequent variants. Not just the straight wings - it's also a fatter, stubbier plane. Drutt 14:57, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

For comparison, FJ-1 and FJ-2 Drutt 14:57, 3 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, technically they are different planes, but as above, they are closely related. In addition, they share the same basic US Navy designation. Given the current lack of extensive coverage on the page, especially usable pics, keeping all the variants together is probably best. Perhaps at some point in the future a split could be made, but right now it would just turn a stubby article into 2 or 3 stubs. - BillCJ 15:25, 3 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comparable aircraft

The T-2, F-84, MiG-17, Mystère, etc were not comparable at all, these were much more advanced aircraft. For a real comparable list check FMA IAe 33 Pulqui II --Jor70 (talk) 14:23, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I concur that the list should represent aircraft that had the same general performance which the F-84F, MiG-17 and Mystère although from slightly different eras, qualify as "comparable" having about the same basic subsonic capabilities. I would suggest adding some of the Pulqui list and trimming the present list where applicable. The only aircraft more advanced in terms of equipment may have been the T-2 but even then, the real reason for deleting it is that it represents a training rather than combat aircraft.
