The post-war era saw victorious Allied nations harnessing captured German jet research to propel their own aviation technology forward, leading to a new generation of swept-wing fighters.

When tensions erupted into conflict on the Korean peninsula, the skies became a proving ground for the world's most advanced jets - the American F-86 Sabre and Soviet MiG-15. This would mark the first major aerial combat of the Cold War.

The US Air Force fielded not only the exceptional Sabre, a true pilot's aircraft, but also veteran airmen who had proven themselves in the Second World War. Among these accomplished pilots was William T. Whisner, already a 15.5 victory ace from WWII.

Flying North American's magnificent fighter over Korea, he claimed 2 enemy aircraft destroyed in the F-86A and 3 more in the later F-86E, with additional shared and damaged victories.

Whisner achieved the rare distinction of becoming one of only seven US airmen to earn 'Ace' status in two wars, and uniquely, the only pilot awarded three Distinguished Flying Crosses.

The Sabre's dominance in Korean skies proved devastating to enemy forces. During a 32-month period of the war, the magnificent North American F-86 accounted for 792 of the over 800 Soviet-made MiG-15 fighters shot down by Allied airmen.
