North American F51D Mustang
Description
The North American P-51 Mustang is
regarded by many as one of the most iconic American fighters of the Second
World War. Designed to fulfil an RAF specification, the Mustang was transformed
once the Rolls Royce Merlin engine was installed. The P-51D model's long range
and excellent firepower made it a superb escort fighter, able to protect the
bombers all the way to Berlin and back. The P-51 is recorded as being the top
scoring Allied fighter of the war with 4,950 enemy aircraft destroyed. In 1948
the type designation for the Mustang changed to F-51D and it continued in USAF
and RAAF service as a ground attack aircraft through the Korean War.
