In the years after the Korean war, the U.S. was in the desperate need of a new naval strike fighter. Many major company's came in and made their planes, but one stood out, the F11F Thundercat by Grumman aircraft. the new plane could carry bombs torpedoes and rockets/missiles. The Naval fleet quickly adapted to the new fighter with its near super-sonic capabilities, and excellent maneuverability at speeds below 300 Miles an Hour. (concept)
