Flames Of War American P-47 Thunderbolt Flight New
The P-47 Thunderbolt was one of the heaviest and most powerful fighter-bombers of World War II. With the Luftwaffe largely neutralized by 1944, Allied air power dominated the skies, leaving German ground forces vulnerable to relentless air attacks. Armed with bombs, rockets, and a fearsome array of eight .50 cal machine guns, the “Jug” was a devastating ground-attack aircraft that struck fear into German armor and infantry alike.

About the Aircraft:

Its rugged construction and powerful engine gave it both survivability and punch, making it a favorite among Allied pilots.
