The Republic XF-84H "Thunderscreech" was an experimental turboprop aircraft derived from the F-84F. Powered by a turbine engine that was mated to a supersonic propeller, the XF-84H had the potential of setting the unofficial air speed record for propeller-driven aircraft, but was unable to overcome teething aerodynamic deficiencies, resulting in the cancellation of the program.
Just a quick build I put together as I haven't had much time for building lately. Fun to fly though. Enjoy.

@General360 no but I'll check it out
@ThunderBlood no beta
Cool!
Awesome I tried to make one but it kept on coming out horrible lol
@Airwolfpiskin the engine is modded if that's what you mean
I do like how it flies but when I Reset the engine horsepower it seemed a lot slower so suspicious of how fast it really is but otherwise it's a nice looking craft
The real sped it 520 lol. @maverickvii
@Rohan ya, a bit faster then realistic but this thing was able to hit over Mach 0.8, though was quite unstable hence cancelled.
700 mph is fast for a prop aircraft.
