Scale P-51 Mustang Mk. IVa by Italeri

The North American P-51 Mustang is a defining World War II fighter, prized for its aerodynamic design and combat performance. The Mustang Mk. IVa, powered by the Packard V12 variant of the Merlin engine, delivered strong performance and could reach speeds near 700 km/h. That combination of speed and range made it an effective long-range escort for bomber formations.

Why this Mustang appeals to model builders

The Mustang Mk. IVa saw service with both American and British units, exhibiting versatility across multiple theaters. Italeri's 1/48 rendition captures key structural details and period paint options, giving modellers a faithful platform for an accurate historical build.

Assembly notes and display potential

Included is a super decal sheet providing four authentic marking choices so you can represent different wartime variants. At a finished length of 20.4 cm, the completed model sits well on display shelves or dioramas, balancing detail and manageability for intermediate builders.
