Metal Earth P-47 Thunderbolt Steel Model Kit

Served as a high-altitude escort fighter and a low-level fighter-bomber for the allied forces during World War II. It was the largest, heaviest, and most expensive fighter aircraft in history to be powered by a single piston engine. The plane was designed and built around its powerful 2000 horsepower Pratt and Whitney radial engine. Due to its thick and massive appearance, it came to be known as ‘The Jug.’ It starts as 2 4-inch square steel sheets and finishes as a 5.3" x 4.5" x 1.9" 3D model. Simply use the easy-to-follow instructions included with the sheet to pop out the pieces, bend the tabs, and connect them at the attachment points. No glue or solder required.
