If it's a US navy part I'd say F9F the lack of a bubble canopy is the issue. It might be an early one.

Re: Warplane Guys

Some kind of F9 cougar derivative with a weird canopy. Probably a reconnaissance version by the holes in the fuselage.

I would have never guessed. Looks like there was a turboprop version too.
