P-47D Thunderbolt 2259mm (88.9") Wingspan from Black Horse - Balsa Wood ARF - BHM1010-001
The Republic P-47 Thunderbolt is a World War II-era fighter aircraft produced from 1941 through 1945. Its primary armament was eight .50-caliber machine guns, and in the fighter-bomber ground-attack role it could carry 5-inch rockets or a bomb load of 2,500 lb (1,100 kg). When fully loaded, the P-47 weighed up to 8 tons, making it one of the heaviest fighters of the war. The Thunderbolt was effective as a short-to medium-range escort fighter in high-altitude air-to-air combat and ground attack in both the European and Pacific theaters. The P-47 was designed around the powerful Pratt & Whitney R-2800 Double Wasp 18-cylinder radial engine. An advanced turbosupercharger system ensured the aircraft's eventual dominance at high altitude, while also influencing its size and design.
The model is scaled to approximately 1:5 and attention was paid to a true to original appearance and best flight characteristics. The model can be operated using an electric power system or with an internal combustion engine about 50-60cc displacement.
