The F-84F prototype, developed from the straight-wing F-84, first flew in June 1950.
Deliveries began in 1954, with most aircraft going to Tactical Air Command as ground support fighter-bombers.
Republic built 2,112 F-84Fs, while General Motors manufactured 599 more.
Of these, 1,301 were delivered to NATO air forces.
In the late 1950s, the U.S. Air Force replaced its F-84Fs with the supersonic F-100, and the Thunderstreaks went to Air National Guard units.
However, some F-84Fs returned to USAF service temporarily in the early 1960s due to the Berlin Crisis.
