Thunderjet, Thunderstreak & Thunderflash:
A Photo Chronicle
McLaren. The Republic F-84 was the first post-war U.S. jet fighter, coming after the late WWII P-80 and not achieving the charisma of the later F-86. A fighter-bomber by trade in Korea, it was also an interceptor and photo recon aircraft. It was the first able to air-refuel and the first able to deliver a nuclear weapon. 208 pgs., 450 photos, 8½"x 11", sfbd. #0003772
