MiG Bait - Too Slow to Fight: The F2H Banshee

Follow
Dark Skies

The McDonnell F2H Banshee was the only jetpowered fighter deployed by the United States Navy and the United States Marine Corps during the Korean War.

This singleseat carrierbased aircraft named after the mythical Irish creature performed exceedingly well, especially in high altitudes, and was highly customizable, with several variants adapting to different kinds of missions.

However, the powerful jet soon found its worst enemy in the MiG15, a faster, more lethal fighter. And even though it was one of the few projects that weren't cut after World War II ended, it needed to achieve more if it wanted to stay alive.
