Rank 4 documents the Republic P-47D Thunderbolt — the seven-ton fighter pilots called the Jug, built around Pratt & Whitney's R-2800 radial and a turbocharger duct the size of a small car. Entering combat in 1943 with the 56th Fighter Group, the P-47D combined altitude performance and rugged construction that let pilots dive on Fw 190s with impunity while carrying bombs, rockets, and external tanks deep into occupied Europe. Razorback and bubble-canopy D variants shared the same eight-gun wing armament that made ground-attack passes devastating; more Thunderbolts were built than any other US fighter of the war. Split-view blueprint art renders the blue camouflage exterior and radial-engine wireframe exactly as the master PNG dictates.
