This P-47N-5-RE S/N 44-89320 was one of the last production Thunderbolts built at Republic Aviation in Farmingdale, NY. It is displayed in the markings of the 463rd Fighter Squadron, 507th Fighter Group while stationed at Ie Shima Island near Okinawa. Serial is painted under tailplane. It is still in potentially flyable state and when I photographed it in 1979 (see here) it carried registration N345GP.
