Towards Republic F-84G Thunderjet

As of early 1952 the Belgian Air Force took in fee no less than 213 Republic F-84G fighter-bombers for its 2nd, 9th and tenth Wings including N° 42 recce Squadron. The first 140 aircraft were delivered by ship at Karup (Denmark) were the aircraft had been prepared for the ferry flight to Belgium. Thunderjets FZ-141 around FZ-161 had been flown in from united states of america become accepted at Melsbroek airbase. Others fighters had been all previous USAF devices which underwent deep upkeep at Sabca (Haren) before being sent to the Belgian Air Force. Some of the machines had the mandatory wiring to be utilized as reconnaissance aircraft using specially modified wing-tip tanks designed with digital cameras. These recce planes (FZ-187, -188, -189, -191, -192, -203, -204 and -205) all served with "C" trip of N° 2 Squadron (RAF) later to become N° 42 Squadron (BAF).

Because the F-84G's had been delivered within the framework regarding the Mutual Defence help Programme (MDAP) these types of aircraft had an extra career in other NATO countries such as for example Denmark, Greece, Portugal, Turkey and such exotic places as Yugoslavia and even Thailand.
