P-47D-30 Chilean Air Force

Hey Folks…Here is my Chilean Thunderbolt…

In July, 1946 Chilean AF do received the first of two orders of jugs. These aircraft were designated to several fighter squadrons (1, 2, 5, and 11) until 1958.

The Thunderbolt 759 was operated in 1° FS (Grupo N° 1), and this airplane was one of few with black numbers and white outlined.

I’ve used the nice and accurate Revell kit, and included some aftermarket parts:

  • Eduard PE 

  • Aires engine set

  • Pavla wheels set

  • Master gun barrels 

This kit was painted with K-4 acrylics, and decaling with a mixture of Francisco de la Cerda and other decals sets.

I hope you like this attempt….

Best Regards and Happy Modeling….
