Academy - 1/48 - USAAF P-51 - North Africa

The North American P-51 Mustang is an American, single-engine, long-range fighter and attack aircraft with a classic tail and all-metal construction. The flight of the prototype took place on October 26, 1940. The P-51 Mustang has earned a reputation as one of the best, if not the best, fighter aircraft of World War II.

Replacing the Allison V-1710-39 engine from the first project with a Rolls-Royce Merlin motor (P-51 Mustang Mk.Ia version) transformed the Mustang's performance and made it an extraordinary machine. With this engine upgrade, the aircraft reached a new level of perfection, impressing pilots and engineers alike.

The single-seat fighter stood out for its maximum speed, long range, maneuverability, and powerful armament. This rare combination of superior features allowed the Mustang to excel in virtually every role it was assigned during the war.

Throughout its service, the P-51 Mustang gained air superiority, escorted bombers deep into enemy territory, carried out reconnaissance missions, and effectively attacked ground targets. Its versatility and reliability earned it a legendary status among both pilots and historians.

The quality of the design is further highlighted by the fact that the Mustang remained in active service in various air forces around the world until the 1970s! One of the most important and iconic versions was the P-51D, which was based on the earlier P-51B.

The P-51D featured a new bubble-shaped canopy that provided excellent all-around visibility, and it was powered by the Packard V-1650-7 engine - a licensed-built version of the Merlin. This version significantly improved the aircraft's overall performance and cemented the Mustang's place in aviation history.
