1:72 Scale.  Length: 6".  Wingspan: 6”



James “Jabby” Jabara was credited with 1.5 victories while flying a P-51 Mustang during World War II. But, it was during the Korean War flying the F-86 Sabre that he excelled. On December 13, 1950, Jabara arrived in South Korea with the 334th FIS / 4th FIW and by April 22, 1951 he had 4 MiG-15 victories. On July 15, 1953 Jabara downed his 15th MiG-15 and became a triple ace after two tours of duty and 163 missions. He was the second highest scoring U.S. Korean War pilot after Captain Joseph McConnell, who had 16 MiG-15 aerial victories.

The F-86 Sabre was a transonic jet fighter aircraft. First flown in 1947, the F-86 entered service with the US Air Force in 1949. The Sabre is best known for its role in the Korean War, where it was pitted against the Soviet built MiG-15. In addition to its use in Korea, the F-86 Sabre also served in various stateside and overseas roles throughout the early part of the Cold War. It was by far the most-produced Western jet fighter with a total production, of all variants, of 9,860.
