A guy I worked with was an ADC crew chief in the 50's. He said that the F-86D almost made him quit the USAF but that the F-89 was a good bird.

Not truly sure but it is a P-3 derivative, it is not a normal EP-3 though, I've seen a few in my day.

Should I give the correct answer or wait some more? Sure, you can google the image, but that would be cheating.

F6F-5K Hellcat Drone. Some of these were used as "Precision Guided Munitions" in the Korean War and supposedly really got the Norks' attention.
