In the entire history of military aviation, there has never been an airplane that could match the P-47 Thunderbolt for ruggedness and dependability. The pilots who flew it into combat called it "The Unbreakable" and "The plane that can do anything." P-47s often came safely back from combat shot full of holes, their wings in tatters. Only 0.7% were lost in combat.
The prototype Thunderbolt first took to the air on May 8, 1941. By mid-1943, improved P-47s included an external fuel tank to increase range, and a longer fuselage to improve maneuverability. More powerful engines were built, giving the Thunderbolt a maximum speed of 470 mph.
