This Sabre is in the colors of the 199th Fighter Squadron, Hawaii ANG  which used the F-86L from 1958–1961.  The F-86L is an updated version of the F-86D Sabre. The newer version utilized longer-span slatted wings and was equipped with a data-link to the Semi-Automatic Ground Environment (SAGE) air defense system, providing all-weather 24/7 defense of the islands.  HDR image.
