Republic XP-47H Thunderbolt

12.7k MartinAeronautics  5 days ago


Here’s a pretty simple aircraft I’ve tinkered on over the past month or so. I’ve also made an XP-72 which is essentially the same airframe but with a modified engine and bubble top canopy. Not really a complex aircraft in any way, I’ve just had other stuff going on in my life preventing me from building and uploading. I’m hoping to get the lightning and the XP-72 uploaded at some point in the near future though. Enjoy!

Controls:
1=Nav Lights
VTOL=Flaps
G=Landing Gear

Armament:
Oddly enough, no weaponry of any kind were installed on this aircraft. It was purely experimental, only intended for testing.

    Your build flies REALLY well. Nice work.

    @Ericshideout That would be interesting. Unfortunately, I’m tired of working on this airframe. I’m unsure if I’m going to do any more work with it.

    The proposed Jet P-47 would be a sick build! Great job on the XP47!
