Meet the F-86H Sabre!

Sadly it doesn't come nuclear armed, but it makes up by being entirely capable of defeating anything that doesn't use OP armor or missiles!


Yes, I have made a Sabre. And I know what you're thinking:
"But wait... isn't there already a PEA F-86...?"

Yes, a PEA F-86 does exist prior. That would be Speedhunter's F-86 Sabre. There's just one issue; that would be an F-86F, evident by its six machine guns and no leading edge slats (not sure about the all-flying tail tho so maybe an F-86A? I'm not entirely skilled with Sabre variants lol). The F-86H is special to me, because it just is, so I've decided to make one, armed with four 20mm cannons and an all-flying tail. The F-86H also allegedly had "provisions for nuclear weapons," but because I don't know where they would go aside from replacing the "iconic" F-86H fuel tanks, I decided to exclude them, but you can add your own nukes knowing that it's almost historically accurate.

And uh... I might've accidentally made the deadliest guns-only PEA. Oops :3


I can't lie, primary thumbnail is kinda epic.


Now, BEFORE we get to the PEA Lore...

A fun fact, this PEA used to look like this:

However, I thought an all metal-gray livery looked a little bland, so I added some yellow accents and made the cockpit a little closer to the YF-23's canopy color so it felt a little better with the yellow accents.


PEA Lore:

Now for the actual PEA lore...

Like the P-80, the F-86H's lore is a little more realistic. Even with the few-years length extension, the F-86H arrived too late for WWII, but still saw plenty of usage during the Korean War. Primarily used for countering MiG-15s and defending B-29s, the F-86H proved formidable to face.

After the war, the F-86H mostly retired, but sometime during the Monarchii War, the F-86H was upgraded and reactivated to fight due to its incredible combat performance. Strangely though, unlike most aircraft, it wouldn't move on to fight in the Siren War. No one knows why, but to date it sits in a museum, waiting. Lurking.
