Gotcha!

The Navy/Marine FJ-2/FJ-3/FJ-4B all derived from the Air Force F-86.
BUT, the F-86 was derived from the NAVY FJ-1.

The Air Force has used Navy fighter [F-4s}and attack [A-7s] aircraft
from concrete runways. The Navy can NOT use Air Force fighter and
attack aircraft from carriers!

North American FJ-2 and FJ-3 Fury?
