== Usage in battles ==

''Describe the tactics of playing in the aircraft, the features of using aircraft in a team and advice on tactics.

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".''

== 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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: 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>.

-The '''{{Specs|name}}''' is a premium rank {{Specs|rank}} Chinese fighter {{Battle-rating}}. It was introduced in [[Update "Seek & Destroy"]].
+The '''{{Specs|name}}''' represented the later series P-47N (''or F-47N, after USAF nomenclature revisions by early 1950s'') delivered to ROCAF. After the previous P-47D series proved fruitless to the outcome of Chinese Civil War and the stop of military aid to Nationalist forces after their retreat to Taiwan Island, the outbreak of Korean War gave some time for a rest for Nationalists but this also called for supply of jet fighters after ROCAF spotted PLAAF has already been upgraded with more advanced jet fighters. But before USAF can even supply F-84 or future F-86s to Nationalist forces, the latest aircrafts they received were 43 F-47Ns from a certain Air National Guard unit around 1953. Although having somewhat remarkable record of sinking PLAN's gun boat in 1954 and claimed to damage a [[J-2|MiG-15]], the end of propeller fighters put an end of these aircrafts by 1955 with the aforementioned jets, which also marked the end of ROCAF's propeller-driven fighters.

+F-47N retained the payload from previous Thunderbolts with varieties of bombs and rockets albeit being identical to them as well; but in simple words - leave the bombs for any tough armored targets while the HVAR can finish off light vehicles, give players have extensive experiences to utilize HVAR rockets at maximum efficiency.

+Although the P-47N series were specifically designed for long-range escort of the B-29 fleet in Pacific theatre, the introduction of P-51D and the end of WWII by 1945 meant they wouldn't be utilize well during the WWII, the last series of these aircrafts were soon introduced to Air National Guards in US. Meanwhile, the P-47D series which were still used by NRAAF, then the ROCAF were soon proved fruitless to the outcome of Chinese Civil War after the Nationalist's major losses in near Shandong and Zhejiang, this would also be worsen by the end of supply to the Nationalist forces by 1949. However, due to the outbreak of Korean War and the halt of PLA's plans to takeover the remaining territories held by the Nationalists, this also gave the time to rest and plans to attack Mainland China by 1950; [[P-38L-1 (China)|although previous recon flights with the cost of its pilot]] hinted the existence of PLAAF jet fighter fleet, the intensive aerial battles and lack of capacity to build more jet fighters resulted in the delivery of F-47Ns to ROCAF by 1953, 43 fighters from a certain USANG fleet.
