Description: Five skins for Version 2 of Allen's F-94B (reworked from Tim "Piglet" Conrad's T-33.)

This set depicts five F-94A's and F-94B's from four Air National Guard squadrons: Massachsetts (2), Connecticut, Minnesota and Idaho.

An F-94A updated with F-94B/T-33 tip tanks of the 101st Fighter Interceptor Squadron of the Massachusetts Air National Guard, based at Logan Airport, Boston, Mass., where they served from 1954 to 1958. The 101st, based in Boston, was known as the "Irish Guard," in contrast to the "Polish Guard" of western Mass. During their later F-886H period the 101st would adopt green as their squadron color and a shamrock as their insignia. Later they would move to Otis AFB in Falmouth, re-adopt their traditional seagull insignia and blue squadron color, and call themselves the "Cape Codders." The seagull insignia dates back to the old pre-WW2 Mass. National Guard observation squadron.

An F-94A updated with F-94B/T-33 tip tanks of the 131st Fighter Interceptor Squadron of the Massachusetts Air National Guard, based at Barnes Municipal Airport, Westfield, Mass., where they served from 1954 to 1958. Note that the squadron insignia features a swept wing jet; curious since the 131st didn't fly a swept wing aircraft until after their F-94 period. The 131st, based in Western Mass., was known as the "Polish Guard," in contrast with the "Irish Guard" based in Boston. The 131st was a new squadron raised after WW2.

An F-94A updated with F-94B/T-33 tip tanks of the 118th Fighter Interceptor Squadron of the Connecticut Air National Guard, based at Bradley Field, Windsor Locks, Connecticut, where they served from 1955 to 1957. "The "Flying Yankees" name and insignia date back to the old pre-WW2 Conn. National Guard observation squadron.

An F-94B of the 179th Fighter Interceptor Squadron of the Minnesota Air National Guard in the mid-1950s.

An F-94B belonged to the 190th Fighter Interceptor Squadron of the Idaho Air National Guard in 1956.
