Seller's Description
GEMINI ACES GAUSABBB 1/72 NORTH AMERICAN P-51B MUSTANG, LT. FRANCIS HORNE, "SNOOTS SNIPER", 352ND FG, 328TH FS, BODNEY, 1944 - LAST ONE HERE
This represents the P51B mount of Lt. Francis Horne, "Snoot's Sniper", 352FG, 328FS, during the summer of 1944. His machine's nickname was misspelled as it was suppose to be Snoot's Snipper. S/Sgt. Art Snyder was the crew chief and also doubled as the 328FS barber. Note the barber pole on the right hand side. This Mustang was long lived, accumulating over 300 hours of combat and was still at Bodney come VE Day. Lt. Horne was credited with 5.5 air to air victories and 1 on the ground.
North American P-51B Mustang
Designed to meet an RAF requirement for fighter-bomber and reconnaissance aircraft, the P-51 Mustang was first flown on October 26th, 1940. This versatile aircraft was capable of escorting bombers on long-range missions, engaging in dogfights, and dropping down to destroy German targets on the ground. At least eight versions of the P-51 were produced, but it was the definitive P-51D that gave the Mustang its classic warbird appearance. Britain and the US both tested the airframe with the Rolls-Royce Merlin engine, which gave the aircraft tremendous performance gains. The Truman Senate War Investigating Committee called the Mustang "the most aerodynamically perfect pursuit plane in existence."
