Airfix 1/72 Starter Set – North American P-51D Mustang

Conquer the skies with the Airfix 1/72 Starter Set – North American P-51D Mustang

The P-51D was arguably the definitive variant of the North American Mustang and included several significant improvements to the aircraft’s already successful design. These included a new bubble canopy for greater pilot visibility, the introduction of an effective new K-14 gunsight, even greater firepower, improvements to the ammunition feed system to reduce jamming and the availability of lightweight external fuel tanks, to further extend the fighter’s range.

The Mustang made a significant contribution to the eventual Allied victory in Europe, destroying more enemy aircraft in air-to-air combat than any other USAAF fighter in the European Theatre.

As with all our Airfix model kits, instructions are clear and concise, in order to allow the modeller to build a detailed model with relative ease.

Whether it’s a gift or you want to cut straight to the action, These Airfix kits come prepared with a selection of paints and glue to get you started.
