P-47 Thunderbolt "Wicked Wabbit" Taxiing at Airshow, Tennessee Museum of Aviation
The P-47 Thunderbolt 'Wicked Wabbit' taxis before a demonstration flight at a Tennessee air show. Known for its rugged construction and powerful radial engine, the P-47 served as one of the primary American fighter-bombers of World War II. Personalized nose art like this cartoon rabbit character was a hallmark of American fighter squadrons, boosting morale and giving individual aircraft their own identity. Project: 219310
