XF-84H Two F-84Fs were converted into experimental aircraft. Each was fitted with a Allison XT40-A-1 turboprop engine of 5,850 shaft horsepower (4,365 kW) driving a supersonic propeller. Ground crews dubbed the XF-84H, the Thunderscreech due to its extreme noise level.[1] Thunderscreech!! Made a sound that nausiated the pilots and crews. Great phenomenon! Cheers, Good idea that proved wrong, The plane actually had worse performance than the straight jet.
