The story behind the P-51 Mustang
The P-51 Mustang was a long-range single-engine fighter and fighter-bomber, used by the United States Air Force (USAAF) during World War II and the Korean War. The final version, the P-51D, was equipped with a Packard V-1650-7 engine, a version of the Rolls-Royce Merlin 66 supercharged with a pair of speeds, and was armed with six fifty-calibre machine guns. The P-51 Mustang became a fundamental part of the USAAF and participated in war zones such as North Africa, the Mediterranean, Italy and the Pacific.
