RVM5314 - 1/48 P-47N THUNDERBOLT (PLASTIC KIT)
The P-47N - the last variant produced - was initially developed to escort B-29 bombers during air raids over Japan. The most distinguishing feature of the "N" variant was its in-wing 50-gallon (190-liter) fuel tanks, which extended the aircraft's range by 2,000 miles (3,200 km). Kit features recessed panel lines, a detailed radial engine, a detailed cockpit, weighted tires, complete underwing stores, a detailed pilot and markings to recreate P-47Ns flown by pilots Lt. Oscar Perdomo and Lt. Col. Ollie O. Simpson.
