Whilst the F-84F was certainly dogged by development, production and perfomance issues it flew at a time of rapid advancement in fast-jet capability and the lessons learned paved the way for the superb Century-series of fighters that followed. This Thunderstreak is on display at the March Field Air Museum. This photo is copyright © Alastair T. Gardiner, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
