P-47 Thunderbolt is a half-scale homebuilt replica of a P-47 Thunderbolt fighter, produced as a kit by War Aircraft Replicas International, Inc. for amateur construction.
[1][2][3] All WAR replicas share a common wooden primary structure.
A secondary foam and fiberglass structure shape the aircraft to roughly match the aircraft it is replicating.
[3] The P-47 uses uni-directional fiberglass layup on the fuselage, and bi-directional layup on the elliptical wings.
[4] A bisected mockup was first presented at the EAA airshow in 1976.
