The P-47 Thunderbolt ran contrary to all precepts of fighter  design. It was the biggest and heaviest aircraft to be powered by a single piston  engine and, at that time, it was also the most expensive. However, calling the P-47 Thunderbolt successful would be an understatement: it became the most prolific of all U.S.  fighters, with 12,600 of the "D" variant alone being built. What was this plane's  secret to success?
