Grumman F9F-2 Panther of VF-24 over Task Force 77 in July 1952

A U.S. Navy Grumman F9F-2 Panther (BuNo 127210), of Fighter Squadron 24 (VF-24) "Corsairs" flies over ships of Task Force 77 with its arresting hook extended, prior to landing the aircraft carrier USS Boxer (CV-21) during operations off North Korea on 4 July 1952. Note two aircraft carriers distantly visible above the plane. VF-24 was assigned to Carrier Air Group 2 aboard the Boxer for a deployment to Korea from 8 February to 26 September 1952. The F9F-2 127210 later ditched off USS Boxer on 26 July 1953 while in service with VF-151 "Black Knights".
