Jeepin Az asked for all his skins to be removed from the game.

The shots above are with the POST-WAR insigna on the aircraft

Below is a color combat shot of one of the Mexican AF's P-47N of 201 Escuadron.

Agree Mash,

Looking again at the pic it appears to be a D-30 or D-35, not an N. The picture must have been mis-captioned.

Might be the wingtips. Author may have mistaken it.

Pretty easy to tell the Late P-47D-30 & 35 from the P-47N. If you look, the "Fillet" leading to the vertical stabilizer is a completely different shape and the radio antenna mast is located in a different position.

The aircraft in the color photo I posted above - S/N: 44-33721 is a P-47D-30-RA built at Republic's Evansville plant in 1944.

(Republic Aircraft's P-47's Manufacturing code: RE = Farmingdale Plant,  RA = Evansville Plant)

The angle makes it hard to tell the difference. I'm no good with planes, and after looking long enough, I could probably tell...
