The Grumman F9F Panther saw extensive combat in the Korean War flying over 78,000 sorties. It was one of the U.S. Navy’s first successful carrier-based jet aircraft. They remained in front line service until 1958.

This airframe jet is pre-painted and assembles in about an hour. Designed for simple everyday flying, the model is hand launched and lands on its belly.f

Included is a 64mm ducted fan.

The large battery hatch is held in place by magnets, making battery swaps quick and easy. The F9F has plenty of power for hand launching and handles easily with a solid feel in the air. The roll rate is crisp and the speed range will satisfy both intermediate and advanced pilots. Landings are low anxiety events due to the slow approach speed and the tough airframe.

Testimonial:
"Just purchased the f9f panther epo jet from my local hobby shop and had to let you know what a great plane it is! It's my first edf plane and after putting it together with ease (!) it not only looks fantastic but flew brilliantly! It flew extremely smooth and stable with very little corrective trim required.....and very reasonably priced to boot!!"
