TAMIYA 1/48 P-47D Thunderbolt Bubble Top japan NEW

Plastic / aircraft model assembly kit
23 cm long when completed.

Dispatched to a long-distance escort mission of a bomber heading for Germany as a fighter with excellent high-speed performance and high-level performance. Furthermore, since the appearance of the new fighter P-51 Mustang, the P-47D Thunderbolt made a tremendous attack on the ground attack mission by making use of the installed capacity of more than 1 t. The P-47D has been improved in various ways, such as the canopy being replaced with a wide-viewing bubble type during production and the capacity of the in-flight fuel tank increased. The P-47D "Bubble Top" has shown itself as a tough and balanced fighter-bomber, setting the Thunderbolt's rating. It is a plastic model assembly kit of the fighter bomber of the US Army Air Corps, P-47D Thunderbolt. 1/48 scale, total length 230 mm, total width 259 mm. Among the P-47D models the late production type with bubble type canopy. We reproduced the style full of a sense of volume such as a thick body and a cowling that wraps a large output engine. Wing flaps can be selected as up and down as separate parts. There are 4 types of propellers. There are also 3 types of tanks, 500 pound bombs, rocket launchers and other armored parts. Includes one pilot doll and two decals.
