That victory though came at some cost. In all the UN (predominately USAF) air forces lost almost 3,200 aircraft, approximately just over a third to flak alone.
For the USAF they lost the equivalent of 20 combat Groups - roughly one quarter of the USAF's total front line strength as it stood in June 1950!

One of the stats mentioned in Jackson's Appendices is a break down of F-86 losses.
Operational Losses:
Air Combat - 78
Other causes - 61
Total - 139
Non-Operational
Total - 347
Sadly just what the 'other causes' nor 'non-operational' losses are were not specified.
