I'm sorry. I don't know about the P-47. The USAAF was different from the RAF. It was an army air force.

You really think so? Better do some reading up on the conflict between the land segment and the air segment of the USAAF. The American air force fought really hard to seperate from the American Army, finally succeeding in 1947.
Maybe you should do some reading on the P-47 then.
How many times do you have to be told that about dive bombers without air superiority? They would have suffered the same fate, or even worse, than the bombers with the same, or even less, bombing results.
Franek, why do you say that?
