The Bearcat was the second type flown by the Blue Algels -- the first
type was the Hellcat. In fact, the Angels flew Grummans until the F-4
replaced the F-11F Tigers about 1969.
There was no Grumman F-11F. The Blue Angles flew the F-11A Tiger.
F-11F was the pre-Mcnamara designation for the Gromman Tiger.
