The North American Aviation P-51 Mustang was a long-range single-seat fighter aircraft that played a significant role in World War II, especially as a bomber escort. First flown in RAF service, it contributed to Allied air superiority from early 1944 and saw action against both the Axis powers and Japanese forces before, during, and after WWII. The Mustang remained in service with some air forces until the early 1980s.
