Might be fun to cross that conversion with a P-47N.

It looks like the Academy wings might fit (the old Revell-Monogram P-47N has a one-piece lower wing/lower fuselage).

Nah...just a honking big 2,300 hp Chrysler XIV-2220-1 16-cylinder inverted-V engine.



Mind you, you could probably modify it to be a whiff turboprop version a bit like I did here:

Will HPH now be releasing a 1/32 B-36?
Work in progress ::

I am giving up listing them. They all end up on the shelf of procrastination anyways.

Kitbashing it 1/72 would be huge job.   Kitbashing their 1/48 B-36 to 1/72 is plenty much to deal with.

Probably not though they do have a 1/48 B-36 (see below) and have done a Me323 in 1/32 and may be hinting at something with their 1/32 B-52 cockpit kit.
