REPUBLIC XP-72 Thunderbolt

The XP-72 was a Thunderbolt with a larger engine and contra-rotating props. Argueably, it was one of the fastest prop fighters ever.

This is a modified Hasegawa kit, though someone currently does one in resin.

The production order was withrawn, but they would have been used to chase V-1 Buzz Bombs in England.
