It was produced during the Cold War period from 1947 to 1953 and remained in service into the 1960s. The F-84G was widely used during the Korean War, mainly serving as a fighter-bomber supporting ground forces and performing strike missions. The aircraft was also operated by several NATO countries including Italy, France, and Turkey.
