The Cougar was extremely popular with its crews, who admired it for its ease of piloting, its superb carrier handling capabilities, and its robust construction.

Except that it never flew during the Korean war. Other than that its a great Korean war plane Wink

I have nothing against making it BTW, espcially since the F9F would be a good starting point if Flak was ever so inclined.

I know it never flew the war, but it was developed during the war and it was in the USS Intrepid which if i recall we have in this game
