Photo Comment

One hundred and fifty F-47D-40-RE Thunderbolts were delivered to Yugoslavia from 1952 onwards (also reported as 133 or 126 depending on the source) and utilised in a fighter-bomber role. The type was relegated to advanced training duties by 1957, after being replaced by the F-84 and had been withdrawn completely from service by 1961. This example is on display at the Nikola Tesla Technical Museum but, unfortunately, the cn is not known.
