THE P-47 THUNDERBOLT (1986, COLOR AND BLACK AND WHITE, 45 MIN.)
Archival color and black and white film chronicling the history of the mighty and powerful escort fighter and fighter-bomber lovingly nicknamed "The Jug", from its inception and design through its early testing and manufacture to its employment in the skies over Europe and Asia (Australian Version).
THE P-47 THUNDERBOLT (1987, COLOR AND BLACK AND WHITE, 41 MIN.)
American English version of the above.
The Republic P-47 Thunderbolt, a World War II era fighter aircraft produced by the United States from 1941 through 1945, first flew on May 6, 1941. Its primary armament was eight .50-caliber machine guns and in the fighter-bomber ground-attack role it could carry five-inch rockets or a bomb load of 2,500 pounds (1,103 kg). When fully loaded the P-47 weighed up to eight tons, making it one of the heaviest fighters of the war. The P-47 was designed around the powerful Pratt and Whitney R-2800 Double Wasp engine which was also used by two U.S. Navy fighters, the Grumman F6F Hellcat and the Vought F4U Corsair. The Thunderbolt was effective as a short-to-medium range escort fighter in high-altitude air-to-air combat and ground attack in both the World War II European and Pacific theaters. The P-47 was one of the main United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) fighters of World War II, and served with Allied air forces including France, Britain, and Russia. Mexican and Brazilian squadrons fighting alongside the U.S. also flew the P-47. The armored cockpit was relatively roomy and comfortable, the bubble canopy introduced on the P-47D in particular offering good visibility. A present-day U.S. ground-attack aircraft, the Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II, takes its name from the P-47.
