The North American P-51D Mustang is celebrated for its combination of speed, endurance and agility during World War II. The D variant, recognised by its bubble canopy, carried six 12.7mm machine guns and was crucial in long-range escort missions.
Tamiya's 1/32 rendition focuses on proportion and surface detail derived from original plans and surviving examples. The kit allows builders to model different production stages with alternate tail sections, canopy types and exhaust variants for authentic representation.
As a build it offers both an engaging assembly and a striking finished model. Movable flight controls and removable cowlings let you show the Packard Merlin V-1650, while solid rubber tyres and photo-etched parts lend fine realism.
