The North American F-100 Super Sabre served the USAF from 1954 to 1971 and the ANG until 1979. The F-100 commonly referred to as the Hun , a shortened version of one hundred was the first US fighter capable of attaining supersonic speed in level flight. The Hun was used extensively as close-air-support in South Vietnam. The F-100 suffered from landing gear and brake parachute failures, electrical problems, 500 of the 1,274 F- 100Ds that were built were lost mostly due to these failures. In 1973 the French Air Force created the squadron EC 4/11 Jura equipped with 12 F-100Ds. They were based near the Red Sea at Air Base 188, in the French protectorate of Djibouti. On May 24,1978 Jura s F-100Ds had flown 100,000 hours so to commemorate this an aircraft was painted with a shark s mouth. It was so popular that the remaining 11 F-100Ds were given the same paint scheme and were referred to as the Sharks of the Red Sea . The F-100Ds were replaced by Mirage IIIs in 1978
