 | P-47 Thunderbolt Aces of He ETO/MTO by Jerry Scutts Powered by a 2,000-horsepower Pratt & Whitney engine, the P-47 Thunderbolt was easily the heaviest fighter produced by the U.S. aviation industry during World War II. Initially criticized for its short range and lack of maneuverability, the Jug was improved upon by later variants and pilots eventually learned how to effectively counter the more nimble Luftwaffe fighters. In his fifth volume in the Aircraft of the Aces series, Jerry Scutts examines the P-47's strengths and weaknesses, and its evolving roles in the European and Mediterranean Theaters of Operation. Forty original color drawings detail all of the major Thunderbolt variants featured, and archival photographs from private collections around the globe show the plane during wartime. A detailed text explains the conflict and tactics flown, and detailed appendices list the aces and units involved.
