The book is the fourth and final volume in the Kagero Monographs series on the Republic P-47 Thunderbolt. It was written by Tomasz Szlagor and Leszek A. Wieliczko, and is published by Kagero. It is part of Kagero’s Monographs series, each dedicated to a specific aircraft type, offering a thorough look at its development, variants, combat history, and modeling resources.

Originally released in 2010, this softcover edition comprises approximately 92 pages. Some sources cite 96 pages and mention 128 photographs, so slight variations may exist between editions. The text is presented in both English and Polish, with a large-format paperback layout featuring numerous black-and-white and color photographs.

This volume covers the P-47 Thunderbolt’s final operational use—its role as a fighter-bomber in Western Europe during the closing months of World War II. It also details the air combat over Southern Europe (1944–1945), and the P-47’s service with foreign air forces, including the RAF, Free French Air Force, Brazilian, Mexican, and Chinese Air Forces. The authors explore the fates of specific fighter units and individual pilots, offering a personal touch to the historical narrative.

The book contains extensive technical data, unit lists, and a wealth of visual content such as photographs and color profiles (approximately 15–20). Some editions originally included free decals and masking foil for modelers—specifically for three P-47 schemes (e.g., Colombian and Chilean aircraft)—though later printings no longer include these decals. This edition does not.
