Thought I'd move this here as it's probably more appropriate in this forum. (P-47 roll rate)
--------------------------------------------
Ok,
I did some tests,the Jug has the same roll rate as the P-38, and has a slower roll rate than the Mustang. It should be better than both of these planes.
Just for the heck of it I compared the roll rate to a Stuka. The Jug wins, but by less than 1/2 a second! 
Just watched one of the Warbirds videos. I saw 3 shots of the Thunderbolt rolling. I timed the rolls. First one was 4 seconds, second one was a hair over 3 seconds, and the last was 5 seconds rolling with a STEEP angle of attack. WAY faster than the P-47 does in SDOE right now.

"Where'd he GO!?!?"
thunk-thunk-thunk-zing-OUCH
That answered my question
