YF-93A
This plane was meant to become the F-86C, with 118 productions on order since 1948. But its design departed so drastically from the basic F-86 Sabre, it was redesignated F-93A. This led to the cancelling of the productions and the subsequent order of two prototypes. During the Air Force competition of May 1951 the North American YF-93A (like the Lockheed XF-90 penetration fighter) lost out to McDonell's reconfigured Voodoo.
