		The Thunderchief was later escorted and eventually replaced as a strike aircraft over North Vietnam by the F-4 Phantom II when losses depleted the inventory.
		Thunderchiefs made a loop north of Hanoi over the valley of Thud Ridge, 21°16′47″N, 105°49′37″E at a high speed and low altitude in order to avoid the heavily defended airspace around the city.
		The Thunderchief's highly loaded wing was excellent for speed and smooth ride but not for sustained turns in a dogfight.

	Republic F-105 Thunderchief
		When the Thunderchief was in flying condition, it was an impressive aircraft, like its Republic ancestors big, rugged, and powerful, but unlike them surprisingly sleek and photogenic.
		Six months after the introduction of the Thunderchief to Southeast Asia, the 36th TFS was relocated to another base in Thailand at Takhli, about 160 kilometers (100 miles) to the northwest.
		Thunderchiefs began to be transferred from USAF service to the Air Force Reserve and US Air National Guard in January 1971, with the last Thunderchiefs, F-105Gs, in USAF service sent to the Reserves in July 1980.

		Thunderchiefs would cross the Thud Ridge, 21°16′47″N, 105°49′37″E – a mountain ridge in the Red River valley north of Hanoi – and approach their targets from the northwest at high speed and low altitude.
		With high wing loading, the Thunderchief was by all acounts an excellent aircraft to fly at high speeds.
		Loss of control due to a spin or complications of adverse yaw required deliberate effort from the pilot and spontaneous spin recovery was rapid.

		EF will never truly be either have stealth, nor have the electronic capabilities of a true 5th gen platform.
		The EF is a late 4th gen plane built conceptually to meet a Cold War Central European defense scenario.
		The EF is in the “exact” same boat as a F-16 as far as aging is concerned.

		The Republic F-105 Thunderchief was a single-seat, supersonic fighter-bomber used by the United States Air Force.
		The "Thud" was phased out of active service by 1969, replaced by the F-4 Phantom II in the strike role, although Wild Weasel F-105G aircraft remained until the end.
		Some aircraft remained in service with Air National Guard units, but their heavy wartime service meant that many F-105s had already reached or exceeded their service lives by the mid-1970s.

		The Republic-produced F-105 Thunderchief was a direct replacement to the aging F-84 series of aircraft that included the Thunderjet and Thunderstreak models.
		The Thunderchief was no exception, offering up a large internal bomb bay, external hardpoints and the capacity to behave and react in the fighter role if need be.
		The F-105 Thunderchief saw extensive use in the Vietnam War, where fifty percent of the 833-total produced Thunderchief aircraft would be lost to action.

		The F-105 Thunderchief was the first supersonic tactical fighter-bomber that was developed from scratch for this role.
		However, as nuclear war became less and less likely, the nuclear weapon carried in the internal weapons bay was usually replaced by a 390-gallon internal fuel tank, the offensive load being carried on four under wing pylons and on a pylon mounted underneath the fuselage on the centerline.
		Following their withdrawal from Southeast Asia, the few Thunderchiefs to survive combat in Vietnam served with active duty Air Force units for a couple more years, primarily with the 23rd TFW at McConnell AFB and with the 18th TFW at Kadena AB on Okinawa.

		No Thunderchiefs were actually procured as F-105Fs from the beginning.
		Although the visibility from the rear cockpit was too limited to make the F-105F a practical conversion trainer, it was nevertheless a useful aircraft for check rides and in instructing new pilots in the use of the complex bombing and navigational equipment.
		However, because of the nature of their missions, losses of the Wild Weasel F-105Fs were heavy, with five of the first eleven examples having been lost by the end of August.

	The Republic F-105 Thunderchief
		* The Republic "F-105 Thunderchief" was conceived in the 1950s as a nuclear strike aircraft, but would achieve fame in the Vietnam War as the "Thud", a conventional strike and "defense suppression" aircraft.
		The bombbay could carry a Mark 28 or Mark 43 nuclear weapon, though as the Thunderchief became more focused on conventional attack the bombbay was usually fitted with an auxiliary fuel tank with a capacity of 1,476 liters (390 US gallons).
		* Thunderchiefs began to be transferred from USAF service to the Air Force Reserve and US Air National Guard in January 1971, with the last Thunderchiefs, F-105Gs, in USAF service sent to the Reserves in July 1980.

		The Thunderchief has in its belly an internal bomb bay; this bay can carry 1.36 tons of weapons, but this was much more likely in operational use to carry a 1500-liter fuel tank.
		The F-105D was the configuration that most in which most Thunderchiefs were built; this version had a radar warning receiver added in 1966 and flare/chaff dispensers added in 1969.

		The Republic F-105 Thunderchief was the USAF's first supersonic tactical fighter-bomber to be designed and developed from its beginning for this demanding role.
		On 22 Oct 1955, the first prototype Thunderchief, 54-0098 (one of the two YF-105As built), took to the air at Edwards AFB, California, with RAC test pilot Russell M. "Rusty" Roth at the stick for a 45-minute maiden flight in which the Thunderchief easily exceeded the speed of sound.
		The F-105B Thunderchief served on with the Air Force Reserve (the 508th TFW at Hill AFB, Utah) and the New Jersey Air National Guard (177th TFG and 108th TFW) until 1981.

		Although the Thunderchief was a superb strike fighter, it was under powered for the heavy loads it was intended to carry and could not be modified into a satisfactory air superiority fighter.
		The F4H-1 was much more versatile than the Air Force's F-105 Thunderchief, since it could not only carry similar external loads but was also potentially a much better air superiority fighter due to its more favorable wing and power loadings.
		Throughout the late 1960s, the Wild Weasel III adaptation of the F-105F two-seat Thunderchief had been the primary anti-SAM attack aircraft in Vietnam.

		This arrangement improves low-speed performance, allowing the plane to fly into and out of shorter runways than would otherwise be possible.
		Originally intended as a pure strike aircraft replacement for the F-100 Super Sabre and the F-105 Thunderchief, the air force then decided to add on fighter capability, specifying a top speed of Mach 2.5 at high altitude.
		These difficult engineering requirements were then complicated even further by the politicians when the secretary of defense Robert McNamara insisted that the plane be suitable for both the air force and the navy.

		The USAF's Tactical Air Command (TAC) was largely concerned with the fighter-bomber and deep strike/interdiction roles, which in the early 1960s still focused on the use of nuclear weapons.
		The aircraft would be a follow-on to the F-105 Thunderchief, which was designed to deliver nuclear weapons low, fast and far.
		Air combat would be an afterthought until encountering MIG Migs over Vietnam in the mid 1960s.

		However, the F-100F Wild Weasel I, while an effective airframe, had first flown in 1956 and did not have the performance characteristics to survive in the high threat environment.
		The Wild Weasel role was then passed in the summer of 1966 to the EF-105F Thunderchief.
		The F-105 Wild Weasel II was a better platform for this role and was equipped with more advanced radar, jamming equipment, and a heavier armament.
