I'd like to see how a Brewster F2A fits inside the P-47.
And TOUGH bones too... Anything that can knock down a brick chimney and keep flying is pretty tough...
The P-47D-25 was the fastest piston engine plane of WW2 despite its size.
And never forget that one of the highest scoring aces flew one.
Gabby Gabreski !!!!!! Believe he score well in the F-86 over Korea too.
Small wonder that the Spit pilots said that taking evasive action in a P-47 consisted of running about the fuselage!

There's a movie about WW2 flight operatons in a Jug squardon. Can't remember the name. But there's a lot of color footage of P-47's, and they are BIG.

"Thunderbolt"
Look at that poster i had a song go through my head.
"Jug, Jug, Jug, Jug da Jug, Jug da jug!" to the Imperial March from Star Wars.
Looks like you could mount Spitfires to the hardpoints and deploy them like AIM-7s. . .
