Re: North American F-86 Sabre
The first FJ-4 flew on 28 October 1954 and delivery began in February 1955.
Except for one squadron which trained Navy FJ-4B pilots, FJ-4s were used exclusively by the Marine Corps, which operated three squadrons.

Re: North American F-86 Sabre
Of the original order for 221, the last 71 were modified in the the FJ-4B [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] version.
This had a stronger wing with six instead of four underwing stations, stronger landing gear. Additional aerodynamic brakes under the aft fuselage made landing safer by allowing pilots to use higher thrust settings, and were also useful for dive attacks

Re: North American F-86 Sabre
External load was doubled. But the most important characteristic of the FJ-4B was that it was capable of carrying a nuclear weapon on the inboard port station.
It was equipped with the [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] or Low-Altitude Bombing System for the delivery of nuclear weapons.

Re: North American F-86 Sabre
The Navy was eager to maintain a nuclear role in its rivalry with the Air Force, and it equipped ten squadrons with the FJ-4B.
It was also flown by three Marine squadrons. In April 1956 the Navy ordered 151 more FJ-4Bs, bringing the production to a total of 152 FJ-4s and 222 FJ-4Bs.

Re: North American F-86 Sabre
The Navy ordered six FJ-4s to be converted to FJ-4F to test rocket engines, but only two were completed.
These featured the North American Rocketdyne AR-1 engine, installed in a fairing above the tail pipe of the jet engine.
It ran on hydrogen peroxide and JP-4 jet fuel, and provided an additional 5000 lb of thrust for short periods.
The FJ-4F reached speeds of Mach 1.41 and altitude of 71,000 ft (21,640 m).

Redesignation
With the new designation system adopted in 1962, the FJ-4 became the F-1E and the FJ-4B the AF-1E.
AF-1Es served with [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] units until the late 1960s.
A total of 1,115 Furies were received by the Navy and Marine Corps over the course of its production life.
