F-105 Thundercrack

5,598 RedFalcon  8.7 years ago
Auto Credit Based on PINK's 1950s/1960s Challenge

Fictional History: The F-105 Thundercrack was a short range naval-based defence and reconisanse fighter built in the 1950's by the U.S. The aircraft was rather fast and maneuverable for its time and had service in many operations across Vietnam during the war. When needed the fighter can have an undercairrage mounted rocket pod to use against lightly armoured targets. Fly safely and as always, have fun!!

(This craft was built for PINK's 1950's/1960's challenge).

    @RedFalcon Yeah. The F-80 has to be my favorite. Also, the MiG was a fun one to build for a challenge.

    It's like a MiG/F-80 mix. Two great planes. +1 upvote.

    Stole the F-105 designation from the F-105 Thunderchief.
