The P-47B Thunderbolt, also known as the 'Jug' for its jug-like shape, is a legendary fighter aircraft that roared through the skies during World War II. Manufactured by Republic Aviation, it was a key player for the United States Army Air Forces from its introduction in 1942.

It was powered by a Pratt & Whitney R-2800 Double Wasp engine, making it one of the fastest and most powerful fighters of its time. With eight .50 caliber machine guns, it was a formidable opponent in air-to-air combat and highly effective in ground-attack roles. The Thunderbolt served in every combat theater of the war, becoming one of the most produced and versatile fighters used by the Allies. Its legacy is marked by its impressive combat record and the pivotal role it played in achieving air superiority.
