Can always use another F9F-5 Panther sheet and this one covers two very colorful versions from 1955/56. Both are in overall gloss sea blue. Of course, the only viable kit is the Monogram version, though if you have the old Hawk or Aurora kits, I'm sure you could get these to fit!

First is from VF(AW)-14 aboard the USS Antietam during 1956.

The other is from VF-144 aboard the USS Boxer in 1955. Both of these planes seem not to have the usual bare metal leading edges to the wings and tailplanes, though the VF-144 plane does have bare metal tips to the wing tanks. There are insignia and data markings for one plane.
