TECH NOTES

     The P-47D was a workhorse of the U.S. Army Air Force during the last half
  of World War II, and saw action in both the European and Pacific theaters of
 the war.  Although its 2000 hp R-2800 "Double Wasp" engine and exhaust turbine
    made the aircraft large and heavy, these proved to be no barrier to high
performance, and it was utilized not only as an escort to U.S. bombers, but its
       bomb load capacity made it outstanding in the ground attack role.
