'''P-47 - The Freedom Fighter''' is a side scrolling [[shooter]] developed by NMK and published in arcades around the world by [[Jaleco]] in [[1988]. In arcades outside of Japan, it was retitled ''P-47 - The Phantom Fighter''. It was ported to the [[PC Engine]] under the original title, published by [[Aicom]] in [[1989]]. The PCE port pared down a lot the game's bosses and cutscenes to fit the game onto a 2MB HuCard. It was later ported to several popular home computers around Europe under the title ''P-47 Thunderbird'' and published by [[Firebird]] in [[1990]]. | '''P-47 - The Freedom Fighter''' is a side scrolling [[shooter]] developed by NMK and published in arcades around the world by [[Jaleco]] in [[1988].

You destroy aircraft, tanks, ships, and other forms of vehicles through eight stages.
