About the original:
The Republic P-47 Thunderbolt was one of the heaviest and most heavily armed fighter aircraft of WWII. Known for its ruggedness, firepower, and high-speed diving ability, it served with distinction across Europe and the Pacific. Nicknamed the "Jug," the P-47 was famed for escort missions, ground attack roles, and its ability to bring pilots home even when badly damaged.
