The Fh-1 Phantom was the predecessor to the Fh-2 Banshee. It was armed with 4 50. Cal machine guns in the nose, it could also carry 8 hvar unguided rockets.
Wikipedia part:
"The Phantom was the first purely jet-powered aircraft to land on an American aircraft carrier[2][N 1] and the first jet deployed by the United States Marine Corps. Although only 62 FH-1s were built it helped prove the viability of carrier-based jet fighters. As McDonnell's first successful fighter, it led to the development of the follow-on F2H Banshee, which was one of the two most important naval jet fighters of the Korean War."
