-This P-47D has undergone various improvements, such as the canopy being replaced with a bubble type with a wide field of view from the middle of production, and the capacity of the in-flight fuel tank being increased.
- The P-47D Bubbletop proved itself as a tough, well-balanced fighter-bomber and determined the Thunderbolt's reputation.
