F-84 Thunderjet - Sweat shirt

Republic F-84 Thunderjet

The Thunderjet entered service with the USAAF in 1947 as a strike aircraft and was used during the Korean War. Famously, the first 'Thunderbirds' display team used the Thunderjet. The F-84 was the first to be capable of in-flight refuelling and carrying a nuclear weapon. The type was eventually developed with a swept wing and re-designated as the Thunderstreak.
