More info here on the F-11 from a previous post.
The Grumman F-11F-1F (also known as the F11F-2 Super Tiger) Tiger (an enhanced version of the F11-1 Tiger) was in competition with the F-104 for a standard fighter for NATO and Japan but wasn't selected due to a multi-nation bribery scandal.
In many ways the Super Tiger was a more versatile and safer aircraft, than the F-104.
