The intricately detailed P-47 Thunderbolt model boasts numerous animateable features, including ailerons, flaps, elevator, rudder, landing gear, landing gear doors, propeller, and canopy. High resolution textures and multiple paint schemes are available for this nearly scale replica, which can be downloaded in various formats. The Thunderbolt was one of the largest single-engine fighters during WWII, serving as a bomber escort plane in Europe. However, its range limitations led to the P-51-D Mustang's introduction with better long-range capabilities. Post-WWII, the P-47 was reassigned for ground attack and troop support missions. After being phased out in the 1970s, only a few complete, flight-worthy Thunderbolts remain today.
