MiniArt 48034 P-47D-11RE Thunderbolt Zemke's Wolfpack Advanced Kit 1/48 is a highly advanced plastic model kit that will satisfy even the most demanding aviation enthusiasts. The model represents the iconic American P-47D-11RE Thunderbolt fighter from World War II in a version characteristic of the legendary 56th Fighter Group, commanded by Col. Hubert Zemke – known as "Zemke's Wolfpack".

The popular 1/48 scale allows you to build the aircraft in its typical "razorback" canopy configuration, with detailed replication of the Pratt & Whitney R-2800 engine, a highly detailed cockpit, as well as completely reproduced armament and landing gear. The set includes photo-etched details, resin elements, and small metal parts, allowing for an exceptionally realistic final effect.
