The Cougar is a swept-wing Panther... sort of.
Also, as far as I know, all Panthers had wing-tip tanks. Cougars never did.
Sammy, above, has pics of a Cougar (gray) and 2 Panthers (blue).

That grey one is at a local park and I played on and in it when I was a kid.
It was still in metal then and I could sit in the cockpit and climb in where the engine was supposed to go. Then someone decided it was not safe because little Jimmy might cut his finger on the aluminum, so they coated the whole darned thing in concrete.
Ticked me off.
