This is a 1/72 scale assembly kit of the Republic P-47D Thunderbolt "Razorback". The P-47 was a high-speed, high-altitude capable fighter that escorted Allied bombers during raids over Germany. This kit represents the early production "razorback" version, characterized by its upper fuselage shape behind the cockpit. The P-47D was powered by a 2000hp engine and armed with eight 12.7mm machine guns, making it a formidable fighter alongside the P-51 Mustang in the US Army Air Force. All model kits are supplied unassembled and unpainted.
