REPUBLIC P-47D THUNDERBOLT

This is a Giant 3/4" Scale Balsa P-47D Thunderbolt Flying Model Kit

The Republic P-47 Thunderbolts were developed as the result of a 1940 Army
Air Force demand for a fighter aircraft able to escort and provide cover for
American bombers carrying out raids over enemy territory.

and dope finish.
