About product

Republic P-47D-22RE Thunderbolt in 1:48 scale, Basic Kit version

An injection-molded plastic kit from the Ukrainian manufacturer Miniart, which has its 1:48 Thunderbolt line broken down into dozens of production sub-versions. The manufacturer uses the Basic Kit designation for the version without the supplementary materials that it puts in the Advanced variant. The markings cover an American fighter group that was based at the British airfield of Duxford during the war.

The real subject

The P-47 Thunderbolt was the largest and heaviest single-engine fighter of its day. A radial engine with the turbocharger housed right in the rear fuselage gave it performance at high altitude, and eight machine guns in the wing gave it the firepower to deal with ground targets as well. The D-22RE sub-version belongs to the razorbacks, that is to the aircraft with the original fuselage spine and canopy, and differed mainly in the type of propeller. Duxford airfield is an aviation museum today, but during the war it was home to an American fighter group.

Building and painting tips

Finish and paint the cockpit before you glue the fuselage together, otherwise you will no longer reach it. The parts are bonded with liquid cement for plastic. Fit the glazing and mask it before spraying so that no paint gets inside. Before the decals, go over the surfaces with a gloss clear coat; on a matte surface air would be trapped under the decal and the edge would turn white. Unify the finished paintwork with a matte varnish and only then add the chipping and the exhaust stains.

Who the model is for

  • builders of Second World War US Army Air Forces subjects
  • those interested in the air war over western Europe
  • modelers who collect the production sub-versions of one type
  • those looking for a model without supplementary materials and with a simpler build

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is the version without the supplementary materials that the manufacturer adds to the Advanced variant. The contents are plastic and the build simpler.

It is the term for Thunderbolts with the original high fuselage spine and a framed canopy, that is before the switch to the teardrop canopy.

Its size and its performance at altitude. The turbocharger housed in the rear fuselage gave it power high above the ground and eight machine guns in the wing gave it great firepower.

In the Basic version the manufacturer does not declare any supplementary materials, so do not count on them. Check the contents of the package on the box.
