Although this F-9J was stricken from active service on 22 July 1970, it was still in use. It and several other retired a/c were used regularly for aircraft carrier flight deck towing and parking practice, crane hoist practice (hoisting from pier to flight deck), and other training for new flight deck personnel. In 1977 there were several active carriers homeported at NAS Alameda.

This a/c was the first swept wing jet constructed for the US Navy. There were two XF9F-6 Cougars built, with this being the first, and it made its first flight on 20 September 1951. It is now located at the National Air & Space Museum Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, VA. Grumman F9F-2 Panther 123050 can be seen parked next to it.
