Tamiya 61096 - P-47M Thunderbolt 田宮軍事模型1/48戰機 雙星孖星  [61096]

Towards Republic P-47M Thunderbolt

Introduced as a fighter escorts for bombers attacking the German homeland, the Republic Thunderbolt experienced the Razorback and Bubbletop variants as it fulfilled its responsibility. The P-47M had been a unique high-speed fighter that was especially built to counter German threats like the V-1 buzz bomb and new jet-powered fighters developed by the Luftwaffe. The P- 47M showcased a P-47D-28-RE airframe fitted with a high-powered R-2800-57 engine with the capacity of top speed of 761km/h, while atmosphere brake system had been set up beneath the wings to help in deceleration. Rushed to program using the 56th Fighter Group in European countries, the P-47M just saw combat within the last few couple of weeks for the war, yet accomplished the difference of downing a German Me262 jet fighter.
