Well, let's see:  Thunderbird 1 was the jazzy inter-atmospheric rocket which
was always the first one on the scene.  Thunderbird 2 was the slower cargo
ship which carried a container with equipment for any emergency (even riots
by pre-schoolers?).  Thunderbird 3 was the rocket for intra-atmospheric
(i.e. space for all youse non-technical bozos) travel.  Thunderbird 4 was
the sub sometimes carried in Thunderbird 2's hold.  Thunderbird 5 was the
sattelite station which monitored distress calls, and was generally
allocated to the most uninteresting son (or the puppet who had the most
difficult jaw-strings).

And just as a bonus, Lady Penelophe's car had a licence plate with "FAB 1"
on it.

Now I'll up the ante... on UFO, what were the different defense systems that
were used to repel aliens?
