Republic P-47 Thunderbolt

[Zenon1947]

Another aircraft from my collection. This one is quite old. It was built at least 20 years ago if my memory serves me correctly.
The model is a P-47 flown by Bolesław Gładych during his episode in USAAF's 61st Fighter Squadron (WWII).
Unfortunately I'm unable to identify the publisher of this Thunderbolt.
Scale 1/33

For being twenty years old it sure looks good to me. Very nice.

The markings on the cooler vent doors are wrong, but thats a common error.

This is Orlik's model.
Orlik No.30 was released in 2006.
Nr. 30 - Amerykański samolot myśliwski P-47 D-11 Thunderbolt - Wydawnictwo Orlik

You can build HV-A or HV-M from this kit.

Unless they made an earlier version?
The artwork style is more like older maly kits.
Maybe they acquired the design from another publisher.

Thankfully, I found the publisher - it's Modelpol. Rarity these days.
