Republic P-47D Thunderbolt Bella + Canvas Hoodie

The Republic P-47D Thunderbolt, affectionately known as 'The Jug,' was a powerhouse of World War II aviation. With its first flight in 1941, it quickly became one of the most formidable American fighters in the war, serving with distinction across European and Pacific theaters until 1945. Boasting a Pratt & Whitney R-2800 Double Wasp engine, the P-47D could reach speeds of up to 426 mph, making it one of the fastest propeller-driven fighters of its time. Its rugged design allowed it to absorb significant damage and still return home, endearing it to pilots. The aircraft was not only a dominant air-to-air combatant but also excelled in ground-attack roles, carrying bombs and rockets. Over 15,600 units were produced, making it one of the most produced American fighters of World War II. The P-47D's legacy is marked by its versatility, reliability, and the crucial role it played in securing Allied victory.
