The P-82 long-range, high-altitude escort fighter, development of the P-51 "Mustang.
The Twin Mustang was formed by two fuselages joined by the wing and the horizontal stabilizer. With a pilot in each fuselage, it reduced to a minimum the problem of pilot fatigue on ultra-long-range missions. The P-82F and G models carried a radar operator in the right cockpit instead of a co-pilot.
272 built. Some of them were used during the Korean War. |
