[QUOTE="Antonio, post: 23939, member: 20"] [quote]I'm guessing it's the XF-93 (or at least similiar to it)[/quote] The XF-93 was a different beast and neither a supersonic design. Studies at North American for a supersonic Sabre existed under designation "Sabre 45". The idea, from 1949, was to replace the 35º wing with a new 45º one coupled with a more powerful engine then in development (P&W J57). An all weather configuration was offered to USAF but the military requested a daytime version. The final configuration led to the F-100 Super Sabre. I have nothing about this Orenda Sabre but I'll keep on searching [/QUOTE]
