Maybe... but if they'd used an F86, not many people would have noticed
then... even some US batteries and even fighters 'took out' F86's thinking
they were MIG15's. In the end they had to have special marking... all this
eventually went away with reliable and encoded FOF systems... Griff

The F4 US fighter being used for a MIG was only because they couldn't get a
MIG. It was the cold war and I can't see John Sturges calling up the USSR
and
asking for the loan of a MIG. The F4 are what they used I believe during
Top
Gun train to simular MIGs.
