{"product_id":"republic-f-84-ken-neubeck-9780764360114","title":"Republic F-84: The Usaf's Thunderjet, Thunderstreak, and Thunderflash Fighters","description":"The F-84 Thunderjet was the US Air Force's main strike aircraft during the Korean War and was used primarily in ground attack operations. Manufactured by the Republic Aviation Corporation, the straight-winged XP-84 prototype first took flight in 1946. Testing revealed lackluster engine performance and structural problems. Design revisions resulted in several new model designations, beginning with the F-84B and followed by the F-84C, which was phased out of operational service by 1952. The F-84D saw significant improvement in engine performance and was followed by the F-84E and the F-84G models, with all three models seeing heavy action in the Korean War. The F-84F Thunderstreak was a swept-wing version that came after the Korean War and was faster than the original F-84 Thunderjet. The Thunderflash was the reconnaissance version of the F-84F.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ken Neubeck\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0764360116\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780764360114\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Schiffer Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/28\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 9.20w x 0.70d","brand":"Ken Neubeck","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43941908349183,"sku":"9780764360114","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_e5adf411-4d1e-41cf-b6e3-af7cd56620c4.jpg?v=1681455655","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/republic-f-84-ken-neubeck-9780764360114","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
