Highlights

1/72 scale plastic model. The design of the P-47 began with equipment equipped with an air-cooled double star 18-cylinder engine with output 2 000 hp and an exhaust turbine. On May 6, 1941, the prototype XP – 47B flew for the first time and the surroundings were stunned by the size of the aircraft, with a total weight of 5 480 kg, and I was surprised at the maximum flight speed of 663 km / h. However, many initial troubles occurred, insufficient strength and draft shields failed to open, and the fuel system also failed, but the US Army ordered this new fighter aircraft and 171 aircraft were produced. At the end of 1942 production of a P-47C with a 200-gallon falling tank was started, and when put in the front line, the action radius expanded drastically and it was possible to enter deep into the enemy territory . Subsequently, the further improved P – 47D recorded 697 km / h at altitude of 9 200 m and expanded the performance difference from enemy fighter aircraft more and more. Of the D type, the aircraft that had eliminated the streamlined fuselage of the leather back to improve the rear visibility and made the water drop type windshield was the type after P – 47D – 25, the maximum speed slightly decreased, It became an extremely well-balanced fighter plane, combined with the exhaust turbine equipment, demonstrated high performance at all altitudes from high altitude to low altitude, especially at ground attacks.
