P 51 super mustang-DONE

[Tophe]

i didn t know there was actually P 51 white tricycle undercarriage,the idea came to me from my head 

"Great minds think alike"... Your one is good too, and that is a whole family which is enriched by your model, thanks

[dekybomber]

99% percent done,stil some things to do,but it is done,i am satisfied the way it turned out  















and 100% done..

[Logan Hartke]

You have good reason to be.  That's lovely.  It does emphasize how much modern aircraft like the Super Tucano and PC-9 owe to the P-51 in general layout.

Cheers,

Logan

Its beastly man, awesome job    I can see this thing tearing around South America doing COIN work and blasting drug runners 

What is that pod inboard of the starboard Brownings; radar, laser designator?  What's under the hood; stock, modified stock, or something new?

nice job

heres one i made the
Mcdonall-Douglas A1K Punisher, circa 2009 afganistan

[Sticky Fingers]

Nice work, dekybomber , particularly like the weathering job: subtle but effective.

Oh now that is a good take on a modernized Mustang. 
One tiny thing bothers me though, it's that pigeon type bird  just behind
The exhaust, you really ought to replace it with a "Mustang" .

thanks guys,well the pod is radar,underneath is laser designator unit,under the hood should be something very powerful,some new generation turboprop engine that outputs 2500 Kw,in order to be able to lift that much armament..i was actually thinking of making modern turboprop variant of A1 Skyrider-"crudebuteffective" yours is great idea,i think i will do something like yours only with tricicle landing gear.

I've always liked the idea of an aircraft being useds long after there standard life like the piper enforcer (the inspiration for the beast above), and
the douglas invader, as for tricycle under carriage my raider could have done with it i had to extend the rear wheel so the pilot could realistically look over the long nose

Now that looks good in lo-viz 

[ChernayaAkula]

That's pretty cool!  All the little airframe mods, the antennas, very nice! I wonder, though,... do you feel it's got enough armament? 

[dadlamassu]

though,... do you feel it's got enough armament? 

I thought the same - then realised that you'd missed off the wingtip Sidewinders?

I thought the same - then realised that you'd missed off the wingtip Sidewinders?

...and the Tallboy underneath!

[kitbasher]

Well, the Super Mustang confirms my belief that the Tucano bears more than a passing resemblance to the P-51D.  And as for the TurboSkyraider, well if only more had been done with the magnificent (looking, if not performing) Wyvern.

There's probably a kitchen sink  somewhere........
