Table of Contents
The P-47 Thunderbolt, “The Jug”, was one of the fastest and largest single-engine US fighters during World War II. With eight .50-caliber machine guns and
heavy armor, the Thunderbolt could give and take tremendous damage and still bring its pilot home safe. The Thunderbolt was used in about every type of
mission, from dogfighting to bomber, to escort and ground attack, the P-47 could do it all. From the trim scheme of the 404th Fighter Group, to the dummy
radial engine, .50 caliber gun barrels, scale air exits through the turbocharger exhaust and intercooler doors and detailed cockpit area, ParkZone brings this
famous fighter to life loaded with scale detail.
