Tamiya P-47D Thunderbolt Bubbletop 48 Model Kit

The P-47D Bubbletop was the definitive Thunderbolt variant, replacing the razorback spine with a clear-vision bubble canopy for dramatically improved rear visibility. Combined with its turbo-supercharged R-2800 engine, eight .50 caliber guns, and 2,500-pound bomb load, the Bubbletop was a supreme fighter-bomber. P-47D Bubbletops dominated the skies over France and Germany in 1944-45. Tamiya's 1/48 kit features the distinctive bubble canopy, detailed R-2800 engine, and full ordnance options.
