Thanks

Considering that the P-47 was built by Republic and, in limited numbers, Curtiss, that is not likely...

As others have stated, the "M" variant was a souped-up "D" model built in very limited numbers, and wasn't terribly successful.

The "N" model, on the other hand, would be nice to have in-game. It would also be nice to have more maps that allow the operational range of the "N" model to be exploited, as well as that of other long-range aircraft.

The P-47N I always thought was interesting... different shape to the wings, greater range, HVAR rockets, used in the late stages of the Pacific war.

The P-47M is interesting too although we pretty much already have it in the non-descript P-47D, 1944 which is meant to simulate a field mod/hot rodded P-47D-27. Pretty much bang on in performance.

Could you modify the 3D model of the non-descript P-47D by adding a dorsal fin fillet and add dive recover flaps and call it the P-47M??

I don't have the talent. Someone could.

Any new P-47s would be a great addition to this game

Just fixing the existing P-47 razorback bar would be a good start



Look! No "refraction" required !!!

I was going to post the rest but unless I can find hard evidence that the Lw flew them in combat it ain't gonna get done ....

Sad really. Let the ban commence

You mean how the gunsight is mounted too low? It'd be nice to fix that one.
