Most fans of military aviation know that F-86 Sabres in the Korean War were armed with machine guns, while their opponents, MiG-15s had cannons. But did you know that there was a cannon armed variant of the Sabre and that it flew hundreds of combat sorties in the Korean War? How well did it do and was it the reason why the USAF abandoned machine-guns immediately after the War? Find out in this video.
