(I always thought that one of those late models represented the N, but that's just the impression I've gotten?)
It could also have been the P-47 D-30 models which were retrofitted with HVAR (instead of high drag rocket tubes)
But I digress...

The P-47D with no block number is meant to represent a field modified "hot rodded" P-47. It's performance is supposed to be somewhat similar to the P-47M.
The P-47N is a sort of different beast with more power, weight, fuel, revised wings, etc. I'd love to have it as it played a role in the summer of 1945. Not sure if its part of the embargo of N-G related properties or not.
