Description

The P-51 Mustang is a fighter aircraft that was developed in an astonishing 117 days under a contract signed by the British Aircraft Purchase Board with North American
in April 1940 .


 

It was initially exported to Britain, but when the United States entered the war, it was adopted by the U.S. Army Air Corps, which
was uninterested in the P-51 .

 

The D type is a model with a lower rear fuselage top surface and a rear sliding valve canopy
to improve the rear visibility of the previous B/C types . The early model did not have a dorsal fin at the front of the vertical tail, but it was added during production to improve directional stability.


 

The reason why the Mustang is said to be a masterpiece during World War II
has been proven in actual combat, but the secret to its excellence lies in
its design, which is one step ahead of its peers, and
its overall cohesiveness.
