AIRFIX STARTER SET P-51D MUSTANG

EXCLUSIVE BUILD

David Holmes builds Airfix’s new-tool 1/72 P-51D Mustang Starter Set, out of the box.

During World War Two, the North American Mustang made a significant contribution to the Allied victory over the skies of Europe, destroying more enemy aircraft in air-to-air combat than any other USAAF fighter. The P-51D variant included several significant improvements on what was already a successful design. These included a new bubble canopy for greater pilot visibility, an effective K-14 gun sight, greater firepower, improvements to the ammunition feed to reduce jamming and the availability of lightweight external fuel tanks to extend the fighter’s range.
