Tamiya 60328 - 1/32 F-51D Mustang Military Scale Kit  [60328]

Classic Mustang Returns to Combat in Korea

Originally the P-51D, the North American Mustang evolved into the F-51D after service reorganisation and saw renewed action in Korea. Its laminar flow wing and robust airframe kept it effective for ground support and escort duties when runway conditions limited jet operations.

Combat Role and Scale Model Appeal

The F-51D provided a mix of range and payload that jets of the era could not always match. The Tamiya 1/32 kit gives modellers the parts needed to represent that capability, making it a fine subject for display or period dioramas.

Builder Notes and Finish Advice

The Tamiya 1/32 F-51D Mustang model kit offers detailed cockpit fittings and accurate surface definition. Builders should prepare for precise assembly and masking for paintwork to get a crisp, museum-quality finish.
