To me the left jet is an F87 variant but the dark right one is a B57 Canberra.

Nose is way too stubby for a F7f, perhaps an A20 or an A26?

My thought was an A26, although it could be a very dark F7F.

Edit:  Nope, my cookie goes to whoever first called it a P-70 - fantastic ID (I'm almost certain) given that horrible pixelated mess.

F9?

Would say so. High stab and angled fin.

Not a twin engined prop job as no nacelles.

It's too large for an F9F-3 or -5. Besides, the plane in the image has a high wing.

It looks like an F-89A or B, with the tip tanks removed.
