Airfix - North American P-51D Mustang - 1:48
Product Code: A05131A
The North American P-51 Mustang is viewed as one
of the 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.
