Hasegawa 1455 1/72 P-51D Mustang (USAAF Fighter)

Model Aircraft Kit

Recreate one of the most celebrated American fighter aircraft of World War II with this 1/72 scale kit depicting the P-51D Mustang. Powered by the Rolls-Royce Merlin-derived Packard V-1650 engine and distinguished by its iconic bubble canopy, the P-51D combined high speed, excellent high-altitude performance, and exceptional range, making it ideally suited to escorting Allied bombers deep into occupied Europe. The type entered widespread service with the USAAF in 1944 and quickly became a formidable air-superiority fighter, helping Allied forces gain control of the skies over Europe.
