| The P-51 Mustang is the
elite fighter of World War 2. The Mustang cleared the skies of Luftwaffe
fighters. There were no other aircraft that could fly as high, go
as far and fight as hard as the P-51. It accounted for more kills
than any WW2 fighter. This aircraft had a range with external tanks
of over 1700 miles and was used for many missions escorting the great B-17's,
B-24's and B-29's. The prototype P-51 Mustang was designed, built and flown
in only 117 days. There were 15,686 Mustangs built. The
P51 was flown by 11 Allied countries and created 281 Aces. The Aircraft
flew 472 mph and set the worlds low altitude speed record of 499 mph at
the Salt Flats.
