The Grumman F9F Panther
was the manufacturer's first jet fighter and the US Navy's second. It first
flew in 1947. Power was a Rolls-Royce Nene turbojet built under license by
Pratt & Whitney as the J42. Since there was insufficient space within the
wings and fuselage for fuel for the thirsty jet, permanently mounted wingtip
fuel tanks were added.
F9F-3: Allison
J33 powered version produced as insurance against the failure of the J42, 54
built. All converted to J42 power later
