I’m building Academy’s P-47D bubbletop and need to know if the P-47 was capable of wing mounted fuel tanks. The only location provided in the kit is a centerline mount. I have the Razorback kit also to get a matching tank from.
It’s my understanding that if the P-47 had bombracks, it was drop tank capable. I believe the paper 108 gallon tanks were preferred, but I’ve seen some with the 110 (I think…) metal drop tanks.
