The North American P-51 Mustang is undoubtedly one of the most iconic aircraft in military aviation history and is widely regarded as the best piston-engine fighter of World War II. The P-51 was developed in a remarkably short time and was built around the Packard V-12 engine, capable of delivering over 1,600 horsepower, allowing the Mustang to exceed 700 km/h. The P-51D, the most widely produced variant, was armed with six 12.7 mm Browning machine guns mounted in the wings. It was extensively employed on the European front, primarily escorting bomber formations but also serving as a fighter-bomber for ground attack missions. The Mustang was flown by some of the most renowned American aces of World War II, who showcased its exceptional performance and operational capabilities.
