1/48 P-51D Mustang

This is a 1/48 P-51D Mustang Plastic Airplane Model Kit.

After WWII it appeared that the North American P-51D's days in front line use were limited because of the advent of the jet age. The conflict in Korea brought the aircraft out of reserve and back into action but as the F-51D. Later, F-51's found there way into the air forces of many small countries around the world, and especially in Latin America. In many cases, these aircraft were still in use through the late 1960's.
