== Usage in battles ==

''Describe the tactics of playing in the aircraft, the features of using aircraft in a team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but instead, give the reader food for thought. Examine the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).''

=== Pros and cons ===

''Summarise and briefly evaluate the vehicle in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark its pros and cons in the bulleted list. Try not to use more than 6 points for each of the characteristics. Avoid using categorical definitions such as "bad", "good" and the like - use substitutions with softer forms such as "inadequate" and "effective".''

'''Pros:'''

-Excellent flight performance

-Magic 2 missiles are very effective and it carries up to 8 of them

-Has access to R530D radar missiles

*

'''Cons:'''

P-47N-15

{{Specs-Card
|code=p-47n-15

}}

== Description ==

The '''{{Specs|name}}''' is a rank {{Specs|rank}} American fighter {{Battle-rating}}. It was introduced in [[Update 1.61 "Road to Glory"]].

The P-47N-15 can in many ways be considered a more specialised fighter version of the P-47D series of fighters, being built solely for a boom and zoom strategy. The key difference separating the P-47N from both the D-series and other planes in general at the battle rating is its top speed and manoeuvrability, bordering on just below 800 km/h and with an airframe that can support it. This, coupled with its 8 devastating M2 .50 cal Brownings make it an extremely deadly and dangerous opponent.

The P-47N also has clipped wing tips, allowing it higher level flight speed and giving it a much more controllable and faster roll rate. However, these wings widened the landing gear base and added room for more fuel tanks to be added to increase its range. This added quite a lot of weight, reducing its climb rate. But despite its clipped wings, the P-47N actually gained wing area over the other models of P-47, improving its pitch tremendously overall.

First and foremost, the ''Offensive 12 mm'' should be researched. The next step should be to rush ''Compressor'', ''Engine'', and ''Engine Injection''. The proceeding choice should be between the ''New 12 mm MGs'' or the ''G-Suit'' (if you have weaker pilots, choose the ''G-Suit'' first over machine guns). The remaining modules can then be unlocked in any order desired.

== Usage in battles ==

'''How to offensively engage an enemy aircraft:''' From the start of the match you want to be gaining altitude. Side climbing is heavily recommended, as many planes at the P-47's BR climb much faster vertically. Once at a high enough altitude, the P-47's greatest strength is its speed. It has great acceleration and great speed at most altitudes. From there your main operation of attack will be the simple Boom & Zoom tactic, making good use of its amazing energy retention. However it isn't strictly limited to this role. The P-47N has very strong elevator and rudder authority. While it is not the most recommended tactic, if you are at a higher speed you can dog fight most planes for short periods of time, so long as you make use of vertical space as well as horizontal while you do it and watch your speed. Engaging in turn fighting is not recommended because most enemies you will be facing can out-turn you easily.

'''How to perform defensive fighting:''' The P-47N's primary defensive strength is its powerful engine and good energy retention. Additionally, its manoeuvrability is not too bad either. With its decent roll rate you are able to do repeated rolling manoeuvres to keep out of an enemies gun sights as a last resort. You can confidently put it in a full 90 degree dive until they pull off. It is very difficult to rip the wings of the P-47N- a great deal of speed is required.

'''Enemies worth noting:'''

* [[ZSD63]]: A dangerous SPAA to go up against in Tank Realistic Battles. Though it is hard to identify specific SPAA vehicles on the ground (especially when they are shooting tracers at the plane), if a ZSD63 is identified, avoid it at all costs and '''do not''' attempt head-ons with it, ever. It can easily snap a wing off by casually putting a short burst in the {{PAGENAME}}'s flight path. Don't even get close to it unless the {{PAGENAME}} is equipped with a bomb or if it is busy shooting another friendly. Some identifying features of the ZSD63 is its rather boxy and tall hull with a geometric turret sitting at the back, slightly similar to a Wirbelwind's. The firing manner is also distinctive: the sound and green tracers are very rapid, much like a buzz saw, but then it will remain silent for half a minute reloading. Note that an experienced ZSD player will hold its fire or shoot in single salvos with long halts between, making it look like that it's reloading. Armour piercing belt is recommended since their high penetration can tear through the ZSD's armour with ease and knock out its crews.

=== Pros and cons ===


'''Pros:'''

* Excellent armament:
** Very large ammunition pool (500 rpg)
** 8 x 12.7 mm machine guns provide a very respectable damage output and great muzzle velocity
* Good boom and zoom plane:
** Above average energy retention horizontally and average vertical energy retention
** Extremely high rip speed (950 km/h)
** Good high speed turn rate
** Excellent high altitude performance
** Good roll rate
* Great linear energy retention (plane doesn't lose much speed when in a straight line) at most altitudes
* Durable engine and airframe that can take a beating, wing fuel tanks never catch on fire

'''Cons:'''

* Below average engine characteristics:
** Limited WEP (12 mins)
** Tends to overheat
** Bad automatic engine control: [[Guide to manual engine controls|MEC]] is needed (radiators and mixture management) to avoid overheating
* Below average performance at low altitudes
* Compresses at high speeds
* Extremely poor performance at low speeds:
** Very bad stall control
** Very poor turn at low to medium speeds
** Roll rate decreases exponentially the slower the plane goes
* Lower than average climb rate, significantly lower than the previous [[P-47D-28]]
* Minimal fuel load is very heavy (37 mins)
* Machine guns are mounted very far apart

== History ==


The P-47N was a long range version of the P-47 Thunderbolt designed for operations in the Pacific theatre. It was the last mass-production P-47 Thunderbolt variant.

=== Development and Design ===
Four P-47D-27-RE airframes were taken off the production line at Farmingdale to be fitted with the Pratt and Whitney R-2800-57(C) engine and a CH-5 turbosupercharger. These aircraft were designated as the YP-47M. The new power plant provided a greater 2800 up at 32,500 ft on war emergency power with water injection. These airframe were the prototypes for the P-47M Thunderbolt.

It became clear that operations in the Pacific theatre required greater operational range than in Europe, so the third YP-47M airframe (serial 42-27387) was modified in mid-1942. The wing was given a larger span, and the wing surface area was increased. One 93 US gallon fuel tank was fitted in each wing, a first for the P-47 family. The total amount of fuel that could be carried with external fuel tanks was 1266 US gallons, giving the aircraft a range of 2350 miles. The prototype was designated as the XP-47N.

The wing design increased the size of the ailerons and included squared-off wingtips. The dorsal fin was also taller than on earlier P-47s. These changes allowed an increase in roll rate and manoeuvrability, but also increased the weight significantly. Larger landing gear had to be fitted to cope with the increased weight, which increased the weight further. The maximum weight that resulted was in excess of 20,000 lbs.

The USAAF ordered 1900 P-47Ns on June 20, 1944, due to the fact that other proven P-47 variants were already in service; the order came before the XP-47N had even flown for the first time. The first flight occurred on 22 July 1944.

The P-47N-1-RE was first delivered in September 1944, with a total of 24 delivered by the end of the year. The P-47N-5-RE batch added zero-length rocket launchers. The P-47N-25-RE batch incorporated the improved R-2800-77 engine.

The P-47N, despite the more powerful power plant and other improvements, was much heavier than the P-47M. As such, the performance was actually lower than that of earlier models. The increased range, though, was more important in the Pacific theatre than was performance die to the nature of the missions assigned to the P-47N in that theatre.

=== Production ===
A total of 1667 P-47Ns of all types were built by the Farmingdale plant between December 1944 and December 1945. 149 P-47Ns were built by the Evansville plant for a total of 1,816 production P-47Ns. 5,934 more P-47Ns were cancelled after VJ Day, resulting in the end of all P-47 Thunderbolt by the end of December 1945.

=== Service ===
The P-47N saw service in the Pacific theatre during the last year of the war. They were used to escort B-29 Superfortesses on long, overwater flights - particularly from Saipan to Japan. After World War 2, P-47s were used by the USAAF and then USAF until 1949, and the Air National Guard until 1953. It was redesignated as the F-47 in 1948.

== Usage in battles ==

''Describe the tactics of playing in the aircraft, the features of using aircraft in a team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but instead, give the reader food for thought. Examine the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).''

The most effective way of using Mirage F1C in air realistic battles is playing support role. Try to stay behind your team and pick slow and distracted targets. Considering poor top speed and maneuverability of Mirage F1C, it doesn't stand much chance in duels against most enemies it faces, even against 10.3 fighters.

'''Enemies worth noting:'''

Every fighter at it BR is a threat for the Mirage F1C because of its slow acceleration and bad response to elevator and rudder. Any opposing fighter will outmanoeuvre you.

=== Pros and cons ===


'''Pros:'''

* Availability of Matra Super 530F air-to-air missiles
* The Cyrano-IV allows low altitude Pulse-Doppler (MTI) and ACM, an upgrade from the previous Mirage (IIIE & IIIC)
* 120 countermeasures
* Matra Magics are very good IR missiles at this rank

'''Cons:'''

* Very slow acceleration with full loadout
* The Matra Super 530F missiles are very heavy and impact flight performance
* Poor manoeuvrability
* Poor top speed compared to other aircraft at this rank
* 30 mm DEFA cannons are difficult to use at high speeds

== History ==

''Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the aircraft in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: <nowiki>https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History</nowiki>) and add a link to it here using the <code>main</code> template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <code><nowiki><ref></ref></nowiki></code>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <code><nowiki><references /></nowiki></code>.

== Usage in battles ==

''Describe the tactics of playing in the aircraft, the features of using aircraft in a team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but instead, give the reader food for thought. Examine the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).''

=== Pros and cons ===


'''Pros:'''

* Availability of Matra Super 530F air-to-air missiles
* The Cyrano-IV allows low altitude Pulse-Doppler (MTI) and ACM, an upgrade from the previous Mirage (IIIE & IIIC)
* With limited ordnance, the plane is quite fast. (you can rip wings in a straight line)
* Decent amount of countermeasures
* Matra Magics are still one of the best IR missiles at this rank

'''Cons:'''

* Very slow acceleration with full loadout
* The Matra Super 530F missiles are very heavy and impact flight performance
* Poor maneuverability
* Average top speed compared to other 11.3 aircraft
* 30mm DEFA cannons are difficult to use, especially at high speeds of top tier

== Usage in battles ==

The A-4H is a versatile aircraft which fits into a wide range of play styles. Varying from close air support (CAS) to base bomber or even as an air superiority fighter. Players who yield such a tool as the A-4H Skyhawk have a lot of options when it comes to play style choices.

Ground Realistic Battles (RB)

For those interested in its CAS abilities, it comes with a wide range of ordinance and a radar warning receiver (RWR). The best way to utilise the plane in this role is to use the ordinance to aid allied ground units in tight situations and clear a path for them to reach their respective objectives. RWR will help you by making you aware of any enemy or allied Anti-Air systems that choose to make you their prey.

Air Battles (AB/RB/SB)

For those interested in Air Battles, there are multiple ways you can make yourself an asset to the team. You can use your very respectable bomb and rocket payloads to help allies destroy enemy bases and ground units to bleed tickets.

The A-4H can also go in light as an air superiority fighter. The plane has a good rate of climb and roll rate, meaning you can employ hit and run tactics on your opponents, or go all-in and get personal with the enemy aircraft. The A-4's biggest opponents are the Mig-15/17 and G.91 R series. The A-4H is a very capable plane in the right hands but is hard to fly, especially against a proven aircraft such as the MiG-17. The poor energy retention can put you at a huge disadvantage against such opponents if you are not careful in managing your air speed. This means that you should only engage in tight and personal fights when you are sure you can finish them quickly and escape. For those who are newer, staying close to allied teammates and helping each other is generally a very effective tactic in the A-4H and generally yields the the best chance for survival and success in the Skyhawk. For those more daring, flying solo is very possible but requires and higher level of awareness and tactical knowledge, the unforgiving nature of the plane depends on it.

=== Pros and cons ===


'''Pros:'''

* Excellent acceleration and climb rate
* Good roll rate
* Decent top speed
* Good variety of ground attack ordnance
* Twin 30 mm DEFA cannons will take down any enemy aircraft
* Plenty of ammo for 30 mm DEFA cannons
* Can carry 3 x additional 20 mm Mk11 cannons

'''Cons:'''

* Wings rip easily in tight high speed maneuvers
* Poor energy retention
* No air-to-air missiles (AAMs)
* Only the fuel tank in the fuselage is self-sealing
* Carrying heavy payload significantly reduces flight performance
* Wing slats extend only at very low speeds

== Usage in battles ==

The A-4H is a versatile aircraft which fits into a wide range of play styles. Varying from close air support (CAS) to base bomber or even as an air superiority fighter. Players who yield such a tool as the A-4H Skyhawk have a lot of options when it comes to play style choices.

Ground Realistic Battles (RB)

For those interested in its CAS abilities, it comes with a wide range of ordinance and a radar warning receiver (RWR). The best way to utilise the plane in this role is to use the ordinance to aid allied ground units in tight situations and clear a path for them to reach their respective objectives. RWR will help you by making you aware of any enemy or allied Anti-Air systems that choose to make you their prey.

Air Battles (AB/RB/SB)

For those interested in Air Battles, there are multiple ways you can make yourself an asset to the team. You can use your very respectable bomb and rocket payloads to help allies destroy enemy bases and ground units to bleed tickets.

The A-4H can also go in light as an air superiority fighter. The plane has a good rate of climb and roll rate, meaning you can employ hit and run tactics on your opponents, or go all-in and get personal with the enemy aircraft. The A-4's biggest opponents are the Mig-15/17 and G.91 R series. The A-4H is a very capable plane in the right hands but is hard to fly, especially against a proven aircraft such as the MiG-17. The poor energy retention can put you at a huge disadvantage against such opponents if you are not careful in managing your air speed. This means that you should only engage in tight and personal fights when you are sure you can finish them quickly and escape. For those who are newer, staying close to allied teammates and helping each other is generally a very effective tactic in the A-4H and generally yields the the best chance for survival and success in the Skyhawk. For those more daring, flying solo is very possible but requires and higher level of awareness and tactical knowledge, the unforgiving nature of the plane depends on it.

=== Pros and cons ===


'''Pros:'''

* Good climb rate
* Good roll rate
* Good variety of ground attack ordnance
* Twin 30 mm DEFA canons will take down any enemy aircraft
* Can carry 3 x additional 20 mm Mk11 canons

'''Cons:'''

* Wings can be ripped off easily at high speed
* Poor energy retention
* No air-to-air missiles (AAMs)
* Only the fuel tank in the fuselage is self-sealing
* Carrying heavy payload significantly reduces flight performance
