Detailed 1/48 Scale P-47D Thunderbolt Replica

The Hobby Boss HB-85804 captures the look of the P-47D Thunderbolt in 1/48 scale, aimed at modellers who prefer authentic wartime detail. The P-47D earned a reputation for rugged construction and strong performance, and this kit mirrors that character with carefully modelled components.

As one of the heavier fighters of the era, the P-47D was armed with eight .50-calibre machine guns and could carry external ordnance. This model reflects those combat capabilities, making it a satisfying build for hobbyists interested in military aviation history.

Are decals included with the kit?

Yes, the kit typically includes decal sheets for authentic markings, but application requires careful trimming and setting solution for best results.

Which adhesives work best for this plastic kit?

Standard polystyrene model cement or cyanoacrylate (super glue) are recommended depending on part fit. Thin liquid cement is good for seam work.

How long should I expect to spend building it?

Build time varies by skill level and finishing ambition; allow several evenings to a few weekends for a neat assembly and paint job.

Can I display the finished model with ordnance attached?

Yes, the kit supports optional external loads. Secure attachments carefully and consider weight when mounting on a stand.
