    This is Republic RF-84F-20-RE Thunderflash 52-7260 "FS-260" static ca. '53. (If the anhedral in the tailplanes on this a/c look familiar, there's a good reason for that. When designing this FICON recce a/c to fit in the belly of the RB-36s, Republic thought that the stabs would work OK even if they were angled downward at 23 degrees. Turned out that they actually worked better than the straight stab versions under maneuvering since the disturbed air wouldn't blank out the whole stab at once. This benefit was remembered by the McDonnell designers and they used it a few years later to great affect when designing the F4H-1 Phantom II.)
