PHANTOM P-51D MUSTANG
It is considered, by historians and aircraft experts alike, to be the
best propeller driven fighter aircraft ever developed. The North
American P-51 Mustang changed the air war over Germany
during World War II. With the addition of disposable drop
tanks, the P-51 could escort the bombers all the way to the
target and back. The P-51 was such an effective fighter that it
was even used in the Korean War as a ground attack weapon.
The P-51 was originally developed in response to a purchase
order from the British during World War II. It was discovered in
the first flights, that more power was needed for it to be effective.
Switching to a British V-12 engine transformed the P-51 into
a magnificent fighter aircraft. It downed over 4,900 enemy
aircraft during World War II, in every different theater of the war.
Il est considéré par les historiens et les experts en aviation
comme le meilleur chasseur à hélice de tous les temps. Le
Mustang P-51 nord-américain a changé la guerre aérienne dans
le ciel d’Allemagne pendant la seconde guerre mondiale. En
plus de ses réservoirs de carburant largables, le P-51 pouvait
escorter les bombardiers jusqu’à leur cible puis en revenir. Le
P-51 était un chasseur tellement efficace qu’il a même été
utilisé dans la guerre de Corée comme arme d’attaque terrestre.
Le P-51 a été développé à l’origine en réponse à une commande
d’achat placée par les Britanniques pendant la seconde guerre
mondiale. On a découvert lors des premiers vols qu’il avait
besoin de plus de puissance pour être efficace. Un changement
pour des moteurs britanniques V-12 a transformé le P-51 en un
magnifique chasseur. Il a abattu plus de 4 900 ennemis pendant
la seconde guerre mondiale, sur tous les théâtres de bataille.
Los historiadores y los expertos en aviones consideran que es
el mejor avión de caza impulsado por hélice jamás desarrollado.
El Mustang P-51 de Norteamérica cambió la guerra aérea sobre
Alemania durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Con la adición
de tanques cisternas desechables, el P-51 podía acompañar
a los bombarderos en todo el camino hasta el objetivo y de
regreso. El P-51 fue un avión de caza tan eficaz que incluso se
utilizó en la Guerra de Corea como un arma de ataque en tierra.
El P-51 fue desarrollado originalmente en respuesta a
una orden de compra de los británicos durante la Segunda
Guerra Mundial. Se descubrió en los primeros vuelos, que se
necesitaba más potencia para que fuera eficaz. Al cambiar al
motor V-12 británico, se transformó el P-51 en un magnífico
avión de combate. Derribó 4.900 aviones enemigos durante la
Segunda Guerra Mundial, en los diferentes escenarios de la guerra.
