addedFrom July 3 at 11:20 UTC to July 31 at 11:20 UTC, a chain of 35 missions awaits you. For their completion, you'll receive a new aircraft— the American Republic F-84G Thunderjet Tier IX multirole fighter—and other valuable rewards!
addedThis final evolution of the straight-wing variant of the Republic F-84 Thunderjet received a more powerful engine, an in-flight refueling system, and autopilot, allowing for longer mission range and reducing pilot fatigue en route. Those improvements had a very deliberate purpose: the F-84G was the first single-seat aircraft capable of carrying nuclear munitions. It could equip a Mark 7 tactical bomb and deploy it in a "toss" maneuver using its new LABS (low altitude bombing system). It became the most-produced modification of the Thunderjet, surpassing 3,000 airframes built for both domestic and foreign air forces. It is one of the most iconic fighters of the early jet fighter era, instantly recognizable for its framed canopy and wing-tip fuel tanks.

In World of Warplanes, the Republic F-84G Thunderjet is a Tier IX multirole fighter that excels in two roles: ground assault and bomber interception. For this, it mostly relies on its speed and impressive outboard armament; its payload of 20 HVAR rockets can obliterate any ground target or make a bomber formation have a really, really bad day. The rocket racks, coupled with the wing-tip fuel tanks, make its turn rate slower, meaning the F-84G cannot engage in dogfights as successfully as some other multirole fighters. Even so, it occupies a very distinct niche in the game.
