photo gallery of a P-51D Mustang fighter, The P-51 Mustang is an American fighter aircraft designed by North American Aviation that was used during World War II. It was developed to meet the urgent need for additional British fighters in 1940 during the Battle of Britain. Although performing at low altitudes thanks to its high aerodynamic finesse, its Allison engine, whose supercharger system is not very advanced, initially limited its use as an air superiority fighter. Following the adaptation of the excellent British Rolls Royce Merlin engine, the P-51D became the escort aircraft the United States needed to accompany its large daytime raids of strategic bombers over Germany. At the beginning of 1944, he had a decisive part in obtaining the air superiority that allowed the invasion of Europe. It is one of the three great American hunters of the Second World War by number, with 15,586 copies produced2. Its main assets are its speed and above all its very wide range of action. Many consider him the best propeller fighter of all time. The name Mustang of the aircraft was given by the British, the Americans having first named it Apache before adopting the British name.
