It's the third in my Thunderstorm series and we've finally arrived the P-47 Thunderbolt!
We'll take it from the first halting steps of the P-44 Rocket, to the P-47B, to the teething pains in England and finally to the paddle-bladed and drop-tank equipped P-47C that could escort bombers AND dismantle the Luftwaffe. Enjoy!

It's the second in the series that will lead to the P-47 Thunderbolt! We'll follow the turbulent, evolutionary path that led from Seversky’s pioneering P-35 to the high-flying but flawed Republic P-43 Lancer. This episode covers the awkward “teenage years” of the Republic fighter family — the missteps, the breakthroughs, and the surprising missions flown by a fighter that was already outdated the moment it left the factory.

...Soooo... why did the RAF have a fighter with NO forward firing guns??? Today I look at Boulton Paul's Defiant and the concept of the "turret fighter".

Tanner is back with a facinating look at the origins of jet powered fighter aircraft in the Soviet era! Don't expect HUDs or air-to-air missiles, Soviet pilots were lucky if they could fire their guns AND keep their engine running at the same time! Enjoy!
