The North American P-51 Mustang stands as the most celebrated fighter aircraft of World War II and arguably the finest all-around piston-engine fighter ever built. First flown on October 26, 1940, it was a single-seat, low-wing monoplane powered by either an Allison V-1710 or the legendary Rolls-Royce Merlin engine. With a 37-foot wingspan and exceptional range capabilities, the P-51 could escort bombers deep into enemy territory—a game-changing capability that helped secure Allied air superiority.
