Hobby Boss 80283 1/72 P-47D Razorback Brief

The P-47D Thunderbolt is celebrated for its rugged frame and combat role, and this 1/72 Hobby Boss kit captures its Razorback silhouette. Moulded detail and a clear sprue layout let builders assemble a convincing small-scale fighter.

Wartime Role and Scale Detail

Favoured for survivability and ground support, the P-47D left a strong mark on WWII aviation. This model reflects that heritage with recognisable fuselage lines and scale-appropriate surface work to satisfy display builders.

Assembly and Finishing

The kit offers a rewarding build with parts designed for clean joins and accessible painting. At 1/72, the model balances visible detail with manageable assembly, making it a good project for club nights or solo builds.

Standout Display Features

Completed models work well on simple stands or as part of a multi-aircraft vignette. The compact footprint means collectors can display multiple fighters without taking much shelf space.

Kit Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72

Intermediate modellers will find this kit rewarding; newcomers can complete it too but should take time with small parts and painting.
Basic modelling tools like cutters, sanding sticks, glue and brushes are sufficient; a magnifier and fine files help with tiny details.
Yes, the decals and panel lines support several wartime liveries; reference photos will help you pick an accurate scheme.
