Ok, this one is a bit strange and I´m a little unsure about it, but I´ll throw it in anyway...

Ah yes, it is indeed an F-86 Sabre, as grimp points out. (A "North American F-86 F Sabre" to be more specific).
To the left is a Northrop F-5A Freedom Fighter (with a "tiger" paintscheme) and on the right is another F-86 Sabre, but it is the K version. (Wich was the NATO version - with a very different nose/air inlet).

I removed all the colour except on the Sabre´s nose.
The photo is taken in a museum in Norway, the "Norwegian Armed Forces Aircraft Collection".

An F-86 Sabre I'd say.
The near monochrome effect is great!

Out of this angle looks like shark whale mouth : )

Yep, a Sabre she is......Korean War vintage.

Strange, from this angle you should be able to see the six .50 caliber machine guns( three on either side of the inlet) which were the main armament of this version.

I believe Karl was too close to the nose. That's why the guns are hidden.
