  • Genial, das sind Motoren... Kriegt man Gänsehaut

  • Smacks of Freedom

    

  • OK, I am now convinced 30mm cannon would have been better on this platform.

  • This plane just screams badass and tough, being able to take a punch. In MMA terms, this plane had a hell of a chin. No wonder the warthog was named the thunderbolt II

  • if Harley Davidson made planes.....this is what they would have come up with...

  • Bloody beautiful!!!!!

    

  • @windswords3 Great summary.

  • there is nothing like seeing and hearing them in person. do yourself a favor and go hear a real WWII plane. Reallife piston and jet engines cannot be duplicated in a theatre or on the internet.

  • @tomtheplumber

    You're right. If the Mustang cost to operate was a "1", then the P-38 was a 2 and the T-bolt was a 1.5. After the war the US didn't want or have the the money to keep the P-47 in front line service so they gave them all to the Air Guard. They would have been great ground attack planes in the Korean War, much better than the Mustangs. Turning is over rated. The 47 was one of the best planes in rolling, and rolling is all you need to do to line up a target or avoid hostile fire.

  • @TV843 Congrats on being one of the few people to actually help someone instead of being an ass. My hats off to you sir, more people should learn from you!
