The P-51 Mustang is a legendary American long-range fighter aircraft used during World War II and the Korean War. Known for its speed, agility, and powerful Rolls-Royce Merlin engine, the P-51 played a crucial role in gaining air superiority over Europe. Its sleek, aerodynamic design and range allowed it to escort bombers deep into enemy territory, dramatically improving Allied air success. With a top speed over 430 mph and heavy armament, it was both a fearsome dogfighter and an effective ground attacker. The P-51 remains one of the most iconic and celebrated fighter planes in aviation history.
