The carrier-capable aircraft of the period still used a straight-wing design which made them inferior to the feared Soviet swept wing Mig-15, which was extremely manoeuvrable and with a high operational capability. Production of the Fury began in 1952 with the required structural changes for take-off and landing on aircraft carriers. To maximise on-board carrier space the plane utilised folding wings, had a longer nose and reinforced landing gear. Thanks to its General Electric J47 jet engine, the Fury demonstrated good flight performance and a top speed of 1,086 km \/ h. It was armed with 4 Colt Mk 12 guns installed in the nose. The subsequent version, the North American FJ-3, was equipped with a new engine and provided even better operational performance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Gift factory","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53867729617237,"sku":"2811","price":27.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0939\/0804\/2069\/files\/2811_01.jpg?v=1778417219","url":"https:\/\/the-gift-factory.co.uk\/products\/north-american-fj-2-3-fury","provider":"The Gift factory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
