Bob Johnson's first combat AC was "Lucky" and was a C model. Not sure if it was a C5 though
Anyway - even though we have FIVE P-47 variants... :aok

Effectively, this will be our D-11 without WEP.
The last significant piece that is missing from the 47s roster is a razorback with a paddle-blade prop, preferably with wing shackles. This means a model between D-11(15?) and D-23, the latter being the ultimate razorback.

Armour
11. The pilot is protected by bullet-proof plate of glass set inside the 'V' shaped windscreen, and by 9 mm. armour behind his seat and head. The fuel tanks are all self-sealing but the oil tank is not so treated. There is no protection for the supercharger turbo housing
That'll help with those 1 ping pilot wounds.

It is exactly what the P-47D-11 in AH already has.

No objection to more p-47's.
They are a stable diet for some, and some are a stable diet for them.
Always glad to see more of them.

I stand corrected! Thanks much.
And Bozon is correct as well about the paddle blade prop. A few years ago I went on a crusade for the paddle blade prop to be modeled, but got nowhere.

Always happy to see another jug option in the list. I would like to get some later razorback models like D-23, D-25 etc instead of the C.
-
D-25 was not a razor back. We have the D-25.

I'd love
to get the 47J, but alas, it shall not be :furious
