Lend-Lease P47s
« on: August 20, 2006, 08:58:00 PM »
193 P-47s were sent to Russia in the Lend-Lease program.  I have no idea what model; the best information I've found to date is the 193 number and a pucture of a belly-landed LA-5FN with the P-47s and LA-5s parked in the background.  Not nearly enough detail to make a Soviet skin for the American bird.

Does anyone have any additional information about these P47s?

That's a D-25 or later model.
