The P-47 Thunderbolt was one of the largest single engine fighters of WWII. In the aerial bomber campaign of Europe the P-47 was used as a bomber escort plane although it range was lacking the capability to escort bombers all the way to their targets and return. After the advent of the P-51-D Mustangs and their long range capability the P-47 was reassigned the missions of ground attack and support of allied troops. These aircraft were tough, fairly maneuverable and fast making it a match, for Europe, Pacific and Asian missions. After WWII the P-47s were quickly relegated to the desert salvage yards, destroyed in Europe or transferred to other air forces in Europe, Central and South America allies. The last P-47 was retired from active service in South America in the mid 1970s. Very few of these fighters remain complete and even fewer are in flight worthy condition.
