Brickskrieg | US | P-47 Thunderbolt | 1/100 Scale Blocks Model

The P-47 Thunderbolt was a powerful American fighter-bomber used extensively in World War II. Known for its rugged durability, heavy armament, and high-speed performance, it was one of the largest and heaviest single-engine fighters of the war. Armed with eight .50 calibre machine guns and capable of carrying bombs and rockets, it was highly effective in both air-to-air combat and ground-attack missions.

The P-47 played a vital role in Europe and the Pacific, excelling as an escort fighter for bombers and as a ground-attack aircraft, strafing enemy troops, tanks, and supply lines. Its armour and robust radial engine allowed it to withstand heavy damage and return safely. The P-47 was a key asset in achieving air superiority and supporting Allied ground forces throughout the war.
