The Tamiya P-47D Thunderbolt Bubbletop (HC-60770) brings one of WWII’s most famous single-seat fighters to 1/72 scale.

Part of Tamiya’s War Bird Collection, this model features all-new fuselage and canopy parts to capture the Thunderbolt’s distinctive, bulky lines. At just 153mm in length, it is ideally sized for display and collecting.

About the P-47D Thunderbolt
One of the most famous planes of WWII, the P-47D Thunderbolt was an outstanding single seat fighter plane excelling in high-altitude bomber escort and low-altitude ground attack. The P-47D featured a turbo-supercharged engine and was active on both the European and Pacific fronts. To solve the problem of insufficient visibility of earlier models, later Thunderbolt models were redesigned with a transparent bubble canopy, leading to the birth of the "Bubbletop".
