Airfix is to release the Mustang IVa in 1/48 scale towards the end of the year
There will be two marking options:
●KM272 ‘Dooleybird’ 19 Squadron RAF 1945
●KH676/CV-A Flg Off A F Lane, 3 Squadron RAAF Cervia Italy, April 1945

Release date is set for December 2018.

As the North American Mustang was developed as a direct result of a British Air Ministry requirement, it is somehow fitting that the RAF and Commonwealth air forces used the aircraft extensively during WWII. The British designation for the later P-51D version was Mustang IV, with the Dallas built P-51K, which used a different Aeroproducts propeller, referred to as the Mustang IVa.

A05137 - Mustang IVa – 1/48
