true and sry a i was a little ticked when i wrote it and wasnt thinking
those are weird looking things does it have two engines or something?
Ok, I'll give you that one.
According to "jbaugher", it did enter production, but did so, so late in the war, it never saw combat.
(North American P-51H Mustang)
Impressive speed numbers, though. Apparently faster than the 335.
This site lists a top speed for the "H" as 487MPH@25K ft., although it does not say whether that was ascertained during testing or in combat.
This site lists the 335's speed as [email protected] ft. (6500m), although it too does not mention whether that was ascertained during testing or in combat.
The 51H entered production in February with first delivery in February, 1945 - only deployed in Stateside squadrons through May, then deployed to Alaska for July/August, 1945
(NOTE: JMHO, but I think, generally, we'd have to assume "tested" for any airplane's listed top speed. It seems people might be a bit too preoccupied with trying to stay alive to worry about such things, under "battle conditions")
I'll give you a litle pat on the back for doing the research, anyway.
