Republic P-47D Thunderbolt Displayed USAF Museum Wright Patterson Vintage Ohio
This vintage postcard showcases the Republic P-47D "Thunderbolt," a high-altitude fighter aircraft on display at the USAF Museum, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio.

First introduced in April 1943, it proved a formidable match against German aircraft in WWII, especially in high-altitude European engagements. This postcard provides detailed specifications of the P-47, including its Pratt & Whitney R-2800 engine and 433 mph top speed.
