The P-47 Thunderbolt was a fighter of United States origin designed during world war II. It was one of the fastest single engine fighters of world war II. It gained the nickname, "The Jug" due to its wide bodied appearance. It became one of the backbone fighters of the Unites States Army Air Force. It is armed with 8 wing guns. AG-1 to drop fuel tanks. I improved upon the speed, flight characteristics, and yaw issues compared to my previous P-47. I also implemented a simpler design.
