F-15 Eagle and P-47 Thunderbolt (World Fighter Aircraft Collection)

An F-15E Strike Eagle (colloquially known as the Beagle or "bomb eagle") in a USAF "Heritage Flight" formation with the P-47 Thunderbolt "Tarheel Hal" at the 2007 Commemorative Air Forceairshow at Midland, Texas.

It's a very appropriate combination of aircraft, since the Thunderbolt was a top-rate fighter in World War Two which served equally effectively in the ground attack role, just as the Strike Eagle effectively performs both roles today.
