20. Thuh original HAWG. RF-84/F

Oh don't give me an F-84.
She's just a ground loving whore.
She'll cough and she'll wheeze.
She'll head straight for the trees.
So don't give me an F-84.

Called the (ground)hog because of its low thrust-to-weight ratio, and its subsequent love for terra firma.
9000' take-off roll on a 10,000' runway.
More fun and excitement than you could possibly imagine.
