P-47

Original Caption: "B-29 Superfortresses, the most powerful ships in the world. They carried greater bomb loads than any other planes ever lifted; they had a cruising range of 3600 miles. Those based in China, and later their sister ships which would make their headquarters on the Marianas would be just what the doctor ordered for Japanese war industry."
