    btw. I taken this idea (from AH presentations :- D) to show the model with... box of model, looks nice I suppose, sorry for offtop but can't resist because it's a nice idea (skins are for DCS Spitfire LF IXc), the preview:

    I wonder what particular bubble-top variant(s) they'll include - quite a number of cockpit changes/differences between the D-25/D-28/D-30, etc., rocket stubs/no rocket stubs (with cockpit rocket firing panel/no rocket firing panel), etc. It would be nice if the canopy/framing/windscreen and wing leading edges (airfoil) were more accurate to the real thing.

    Stock from the factory, bubble-top P-47's didn't have external rear-view mirrors (there was a rear-view mirror internally) - but in Europe, some would of course gain an external Spitfire mirror, if the pilot deemed it necessary. The Spitfire mirror dimension should be checked that it is 10.6cm/4.2-inches wide.

    Good info here, folks! Thanks for sharing! The P-47, like the British Typhoon were two planes that looked like they were meant to "take care of business"; and you did not want to be on the business end!
    Looking forward to this release.
