Tamiya 89732 - 1/48 North American P-51D Mustang w/Car  [89732]

Soar the skies using the powerful P-51D Mustang

The P-51D Mustang which starred in May 1944, arrived built with a laminar airfoil and undersurface to minimize atmosphere opposition, which makes it more aero dynamical. For the energy, the P-51D packed a supercharged Packard Merlin V1650-7 motor. A teardrop kind canopy provided exemplary visibility for the pilot, and had six daunting 13.7mm guns at their disposal. Auxiliary drop tanks enabled the Mustang to quickly attain a continuing trip range up to 3700km, which allowed it to produce U.S. bombers effective protection contrary to the German Me109 and Fw190 interceptors completely to Germany.

Towards Staff Car

Once the U.S. formally entered WWII in 1941, its car industry had been called upon by President Roosevelt to become the "Arsenal of Democracy." Detroit reacted by halting new car development and changing its assembly lines to create tanks, planes, as well as other war gear. The 4-door sedan selected to be used as an army staff car was the final brand new vehicle model available before end of hostilities in 1945. It featured distinctive "suicide" back doorways, V8 engine, and had a fuel-fired heater into the passenger compartment.
