p47 bubbletop is my favorite plane of all time. Had great looks. I really like the later N model as well.

Have to go with the Xp-67 moonbat for best looking, it wouldn't look out of place 40 years later.

Very impressive! I'd seen it before but not the video... Very sleek and modern looking.

Cutting down the rear fuselage to accommodate the bubble canopy had led to yaw instability in the aircraft's flight, so the P-47D-40 had a neat dorsal fin extension in the form of a narrow triangle running from the vertical tailplane to the radio aerial. The dorsal fin extension was retrofitted in the field to earlier P-47D bubble-top variants.

The P-47D-40 also was fitted with the new K-14 computing gunsight. This was a license-built copy of the British Ferranti GGS Mark IID computing gyroscopic sight.

Red or green smoke target flares carried by ground attack aircraft like the p-47 or IL2 are much wanted also. This makes it easier for other teammates to identify the enemy ground target.

Also a green colour for both the p-47 seat and the armourplate is much more historical correct.

There is somthing about the P-47s in general.
When looking at the gunsights there are small slip/turn indicators mounted on the gunsights.
Stepping on the ball is of particular use when flying a heavy energy fighter like the p-47. Currently you simply cannot get the p-47 to the max, since you cannot keep the ball centered and aim the gunsight at the same time.

This small thing can make the p-47 more efficient and realistic.
It would be a big improvement if this is implemented.
