The Plane:
This P-51D is a heavily modified version of the stock SimplePlanes P-51D. Changes I have made to the plane are below the Information section.
Information:
The North American P-51 Mustang is an American fighter and fighter-bomber used during WWII and the Korean War. Retired from military service in 1984, this plane is used today for civilian air racing and as warbirds.

Things changed:
- Two engines on wings
- Lengthened tail landing gear
- Paint change
- Removed nose engine
- Reduced drag
- Removed air duct on belly for reduced drag, may re-add in future

In case anyone was wondering, I am no longer working on my Twin Prop project, so V7 is the official final version. Starting today you will see different modified planes on my account, varying from modified game planes or modified community planes (will make sure to credit!)
