W.A.R. P-47 Thunderbolt is a half-scale, homebuilt replica of the P-47 Thunderbolt fighter. It is sold as a kit by War Aircraft Replicas International, Inc. for amateur builders in the United States. All WAR replicas share a wooden primary structure, with a secondary foam and fiberglass shell shaped to resemble the original aircraft. The P-47 uses unidirectional fiberglass layup on the fuselage and bidirectional layup on the elliptical wings. A bisected mockup was first shown at the EAA airshow in 1976.
