While flipping through Republic's "Pilot's Flight Operating Instructions for Army Model P-47N Series Airplane" (AN 01-65BD-1, Republic Press, G. Hamilton 7/25/45) I found an interesting reference to a SIXTEEN 5" HVAR loadout - 10 on the wing zero-length rails and 6 more on brackets which attach to the external tank adapters.

See below from the reference listed above, p30.
It would appear that the -47N's modeled in AH are at least the -5 variants, as the -5's were the first of the N's to be equipped with zero-length rails.
Now before people ask:
1) Yes, I searched for this topic in the forums and did not find a similar thread
2) No, I do not know if this loadout was used in combat
3) If used in combat, I do not know what fraction of -47N launches carried the 10 HVAR loadout and which fraction carried the 16 HVAR loadout
4) I have not found pictures - yet.
Comments from the AH community?
