just after the second World War, the American business Republic, began focusing on a brand new turbo-jet fighter-bomber.

It was armed with six 12.7 mm device guns for that reason could carry an offensive load of almost 900 kg. The F-84G, joined manufacturing in 1951, is one of the latest versions about the Republic fighter-bomber. Besides the USAF it had been used by many NATO nations, including several fighter-bomber squadrons of Italian Aeronautica Militare, relative to the Mutual Defense Assistance Act.
