photo gallery on a P-47G Thunderbolt, The Hunter Republic P-47 Thunderbolt was one of the most heavily weighted U.S. aircraft during the Second World War. Not just because it was one of the most built fighters to date (14,500 units) but because it was very effective in fire support missions, to the point that it eventually became its main role as its weak enough performance for a fighter did not allow it to compete with its counterpart the P-51 Mustang. Its raw finish and size earned it the nickname Scourge (Jug being the abbreviation of Juggernaut).
