[PAR] [TLE] Republic F-105 Thunderchief [SEP] The Republic F-105 Thunderchief was a supersonic fighter-bomber used by the United States Air Force.  The Mach 2 capable F-105 conducted the majority of strike bombing missions during the early years of the Vietnam War; it was the only U.S. aircraft to have been removed from combat due to high loss rates.  Originally designed as a single-seat, nuclear-attack aircraft, a two-seat Wild Weasel version was later developed for the specialized Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses (SEAD) role against surface-to-air missile sites.  The F-105 was commonly known as the "Thud" by its crews. [PAR] [TLE] Pitch-up [SEP] In aerodynamics, pitch-up is a severe form of stall in an aircraft.  It is directly related to inherent properties of all swept wings, and seen primarily on those platforms.  Unlike conventional low-speed stalls, pitch-up can occur at any speed, and are especially dangerous when they take place in the transonic; at these speeds the aerodynamic loads can become so high as to break up the aircraft, as occurred in 1964 when a F-105 Thunderchief of the USAF Thunderbirds broke up in mid-air.
