Hello
No way!- I said just after opening a Italeri '1423 P-51A kit. So I decided to use it as a conversion kit to make the Allison-powered P-51A-10 version model.
Fuselage front with propeller, radiator cowling and decals were taken from Italeri and transplanted to quite promising Czech Kovozavody Prostejov '0033 P-51C kit.
Some minor changes in airframe was needed- erasing fuselage fuel filler, uderwing identification lamps etc.
Unit:
76th Fighter Squadron
23rd Fighter Group "Chennault's Sharks"
