... Is it a Mustang or an A36 Joe? I didn't think any mark of Mustangs got the machine guns under the engine. I do know that the A36's did though. -- Jeff Cochrane - VK4XA East Innisfail QLD, Australia |

From what I can find, the RAF only had one A-36 serial EW998 at Buscombe Down for testing. It was called the Mustang MkI (dive bomber) by the RAF. Allother RAF Mustangs were P-51 variants. |

Agreed about the A-36. Perhaps we have the same book! The Mustang I did have two .5s below the engine, plus .5s and .3s (or possibly .303s, sources differ) in the wings. -- Peter |
