 :rolleyes: Some people tend to forget that the 51s speed can be used for running down planes as well. Especially the ones that fly the spits to make up for their lack of ACM. ;)

Sorry to bump this, but I came across a well built model on Hyperscale today of a postwar version of the P51VLR(20mm) that I thought you gents would like to see.

Too bad it's postwar. No torque with the twin props and clearly larger drop tanks to go with those 4 20mms

Also note the streamline canopy. I've read that it's the predecessor to modern day air racer canopies.

I heard that with those extended wingtips, that the Mustang VLR (20mm) could out-turn Spitfires too.  Good suggestion Guppy.  Would be great if we could get the B-29 to go with it for scenarios.   :aok

We still need the P-51C since it was obviously the best P51 models ever made.
