The canopies on the two aircraft in the foreground look different then
the normal P51-D canopy. They almost look like they are from the
Fw-190 production line. I suppose that would make sense if the
original pilot had to bail out and the canopy was destroyed.



It's actually a frame from a low-budget war movie in the early '50s.
Can't remember which one now, I saw it (probably) 40 years ago.



You could very well be correct. However, so far, in five minutes I
have found at least three web sites which have published this same
image. see:

Also, the movie clip answer doesn't explain the difference in the
canopies.

Based on the dates of the movie, wondering if these are P-51H or P-51K
models, which do have the slightly different canopies.
