In this issue, we cover several little-known aspects of McDonnell naval fighter development in the early Cold War period. These include proposals for the McDonnell Model 40/40A; XF2H-2/-3/-4 Swept-Wing Banshee; Model 58 (which became the F3H Demon); Model 60 delta interceptor; and F3H-2 with upgraded radar.
