Some ROE:

1. Combat aircraft means it was designed or modified to employ
air-to-air or air-to-ground/ship/boat weapons.

2. Combat means someone was activily shooting back (or really wanted
to) while the aircraft was performing it's mission.

3. Let's leave out recce, that just gets too complicated!

To start things off, here are my USAF candidates:

Hawker Sea Fury,

FAA in Korea.

Supermarine Attacker...

Don't think Pakistan used it in combat, but won't swear to it.
