This restored Republic P-47 Thunderbolt, numbered '44' and carrying nose art reading 'Wicked Rabbit,' represents one of the heaviest and most rugged single-engine fighters of World War II. Known for its powerful radial engine and ability to absorb battle damage, the P-47 served as both a bomber escort and ground-attack aircraft. This example is preserved and flown today as part of the warbird community's effort to keep WWII aviation history accessible to the public. Project: 219309
