P-47C5

I personally would rather see the F6F-3 added to the game before another P47 variant.

P-47s currently have the densest coverage of any plane model in AH.  The Bf109 and Spitfire have more models, but they cover a much longer time frame.

Of course it had a bird cage canopy.  Do you think they went from bubble canopy, took the effort to design and build a bird cage canopy for some reason and then went back to a bubble canopy?

Why yes... Yes he does.

 "Lucky" was a D-5 you could have that on the D-11.. I think.....but I don't think you'll get it past the filter  ..maybe<G>
I think you mean "Half Pint" a C-2

You are correct!   Thanks for keeping it straight.  You gotta admit though, the "lucky" nose art would be a hit with the AH P-47 followers.

C Model top speeds are listed slightly faster then the D models.  C- 433 mph        D - 429

If we get a C they would have to have white Cowl Bands on them as they were marked early war that way
so as not to be confused with 190s'.

C-5 would be too similar to the D11. Basically a D11 without WEP and no aux tank (?). The aux tank is tiny and the WEP is the least effective of all Jugs, especially without the paddle blade prop to make the most of it, so D11 is a fine stand-in for scenarios and events.

The most significant model we are missing in the Jug line is the D-23: a Razorback with a paddle blade prop and wing mounts. This is more representative of a typical 1944 razorback than even our D11 since almost all earlier D's were retrofitted with the paddle blade prop and wing mounts. Retrofitted Razorbacks continued in service along side the later bubbletop D models.
