Well look at these things, yes, those are P-47's. These are XP-47H's.
From the USAF website.

Looks like a cross between a P-40 and a P-47.
Just something to look at while we're waiting for the Jug to be released

And you thought the XP-72 was weird looking

Don't forget the precursors to the P-47:
The SEV-3, first plane produced by Seversky Aircraft (later to become Republic) http://home.att.net/~historyzone/Sev-3.jpg
P-35, canopy reminiscent of the A6M2: http://home.att.net/~historyzone/P-35proto.JPG
and the YP-43, as it's starting to look like a Thunderbolt: http://home.att.net/~historyzone/Yp-43.jpg
