Description
With its excellent balance of high-speed, range, and maneuverability, the P-51D Mustang was considered by many to be the best piston-engined fighter of WWII. After the war, the U.S. Air Force became an independent entity and the P-51D’s designation likewise changed to F-51D. The aircraft was still in service when the Korean War broke out and this kit depicts aircraft which saw action during this conflict. The form of the Mustang has of course been accurate reproduced and a wide range of ordnance, including two 500lb bombs, six HVAR rockets, and two 75-gallon drop tanks used as napalm canisters, has been added for extra value. One pilot figure and three marking options are also included.
Assembly and painting required. Kit does not include model cement glue, paint, and tools. Adult supervision where required.
Contents subject to change.
Simple to build with perfect parts fit. Not as detailed inside as some newer kits, but not as complicated either. Plenty of aftermarket accessories available separately to add if you want. Dated 'boxed-in" wheels wells are not as accurate as newer kits, but aren't that visible, or can be modified to be more realistic without a huge effort. Good kit for beginners or advanced builders.
This is the second kit of this type I have purchased and, as usual, Tamiya has exceeded expectations. Great kit. Further experience regarding Sunward's service was given in my email.
Really very great
