Some F9F Cougars survived into the 1960s in the US Navy as F-9s, especially F9F-8T two-seat trainers, and this example is marked with the new TF-9J designation. The Blue Angels had already replaced the Cougar with the F11F Tiger by 1957. However, since the Tiger came single-seat only, the team retained one two-seat Cougar as its ship 7. Historic photos show BuNo 142470 in this capacity so the paint job of 146417 here may be presumed to be fake.

This F9F was delivered to the US Navy during October 1950 and assigned to VF-721 aboard USS Boxer where it then saw action in the skies over Korea. It then served with VF-821, VF-51 and various training units before retirement in 1956 with 1,575 hours. Now on display at the Flying Leathernecks Museum in the colours of a VF-311 aircraft flown by Capt. W.A. Bloomer, who years later would become instrumental in helping to establish the museum.
