America's first jet engined bomber.

...and the world's first real jet bomber. I mean it had an internal bomb bay.

Well now if I were Robert Mitchum or Robert Wagner in the "The Hunters" I'd say it was Casy Jones in a MiG 15 and turn my Sabers into them.

But since I ain't, nice F-84F's.

If memory serves, the F-84F also played the role of the MiG-15 in the ''Jet Attack'' and ''McConnell Story'' movies.

 

[Donivanp]

Can't say I've ever seen "Jet Attack" and it's been decades, many decades, since I've seen "The McConnell Story" (one of my favorite Alan Ladd movies, that a Shan), I've been meaning to find it and watch it again.
