- Forged in the heat of innovation and battle-tested in the frigid cold of the Korean War, the F-84 Thunderjet was born from the lineage of the legendary P-47 Thunderbolt, with a mission to become a formidable successor.
After a rocky development, the F-84 Thunderjet would soon find itself face-to-face with its most lethal adversary - the Soviet-built MiG-15, a sleek and agile predator in the theater of war.
The stakes were high, the odds seemingly insurmountable. But through the first large engagement since World War 2, the Thunderjet would show that it was not a fighter to be underestimated.
Outmatched and outpaced but never outdone, the jet would forge its own legacy in the annals of history.
