Historical Synopsis: The P-47 was the largest single-engine fighter of the era, earning the nicknamed "Jug" by pilots who flew it. The P-47 was a formidable dogfighter, but the Jug's ruggedness and superb firepower made it an exceptional ground-attack aircraft. P-47s were fitted with a large Pratt & Whitney R-2800 Double Wasp two-row 18-cylinder radial engine, which not only provided excellent horsepower but also provided Thunderbolt pilots with a shield against frontal attacks. In addition, the Jugs were armed with eight .50-caliber machine guns which were devastating against both air and ground targets.
