| 28 (hey, I'm informal!), They were all redesignated in 1947 when the USAF was formed and they changed from Pursuit to Fighter designations. Same thing happened to change the P-51D into the F-51D. The one in 1962 under McNamara was worse -- FJ-4 became F-1, F2H became F-2, F3D became F-3, F4H/F-110 became F-4, etc. Cookie Sewell AMPS (Dakota 22) |
