Again I can’t find the info, but I seem to remember (happy to be corrected)that they were all shiped over and towed overland, there is a picture of this somewhere.

Maybe you are thinking of the F-84 Thunderstreak deliveries to the Netherlands

see below

It is also possible that the Thunderjets for some of the European countries also were previously delivered by the same route. I have seen some references to the ones for Denmark arriving by sea in crates.

What about this…

Twin prop, one Griffon Engine, doesn’t that count?

Not a Griffon but an Armstrong Siddeley Double Mamba

Air War over Suez by Brian Cull has at least on picture showing an F-84 with rockets.

I will have a look and see what it says about each raid as it only mentions rockets and not type

The French aircraft during Suez principally operated with Rockets

Learning more about French F-84F operations over Suez would also be great if anyone has any photos and/or info.

Seek out a copy of Air War over Suez by Brian Cull as this has pretty comprehensive coverage.

There are also a couple of websites with good coverage of the Dutch and Belgian aircraft

Dutch http://www.thunderstreaks.com/index.php/dutch-f-84f

Yes he wasn’t hurt (I believe his considerable frame helped), more shook up than anything.
It was the break up mid-air of the E.28/39 that put him off a bit!

Obviously did not put him off for any great length of time as he lived until 1991

There are a number of Indonesian Mi4 photos on this site which is probably the best for Indonesian aircraft
