X-Plane 10 Grumman F11F-1F Super Tiger V2.0. The Grumman F11F-1F Super Tiger was a single-seat fighter aircraft originally developed for the United States Navy. Based on the USN's F-11 Tiger, the F11F-1F did not proceed beyond the two F11F-1F prototypes. Georges Watkins broke the world altitude record held by Russia, attaining an altitude of 75550 feet on 12 April 1958 in the first prototype and John Noris reached Mach 2.04 on 2 May 1957 with the second aircraft.
