A. The P-51H was the last major production variant of the P-51 Mustang, and it was also the fastest; it could go 487 mph at 25,000 feet. The 20 mm cannons are powerful, but with only 500 rounds do not try to go for more than what the P-51 can handle. The Ho 229 will out-turn you while the Me 262 will outrun you. Featured playstyles are Boom & Zoom, repeatedly diving on enemies and returning up high, and Boom & Run, flying into danger zone, picking of a target and retreating, all while running at top speed. The primary module to focus on for early success is the 20 mm ammo belts. The North American Aviation P-51 Mustang is an American longe-range, single-seat fighter and fighter-bomber used during World War II and the Korean War, among other conflicts. This is a subreddit for War Thunder… The original prototypes were designated XP-51. There were several prototypes, designated as the XP-51F, XP-51G, and XP-51J, which were thoroughly tested. One of them can still be found at the EAA Museum in OshKosh, Wisconsin. © 2010—2020 by Gaijin Entertainment. This is an awesome plane for those just starting out in Realistic Battles, as the 20 mm cannons are good at scoring quick victories. Only late war or diving aircraft are able to catch a Mustang on the run and for the latter only with the correct timing and plenty of altitude to burn. The new batch was modified by fitting self sealing fuel tanks and replacing the earlier Mustang's eight machine guns with a new armament of four 20 mm cannon, to create the Mustang Mk.IA. It was introduced in Update 1.71 "New E.R.A.". While retaining all features the earlier versions may offer, its powerplant is upgraded. However this is for an altitude range up to 4,000 m (13,000 ft). Over time these P-51 Mustangs were converted to Reconnaissance planes. This is a subreddit for War Thunder, a cross platform vehicular combat MMO developed by Gaijin Entertainment for Microsoft Windows, macOS, Linux, PlayStation 4, Xbox One. North American agreed, but they wanted to build a better aircraft. It has impressive performance against most props it may face and it can put a considerable fight against earlier jets. The Mustang would go on to serve the USAF in the Korean War, and was exported to over 50 foreign air forces. Due to the lack of climb rate and poor altitude performance, bombers should not be sought out. It is also important to note the Mustang Mk I's armament consisting of four .30 Cal machine guns mounted in the wings, as well as a set of two .50 Cal mounted in the wings and two .50 Cal machine guns mounted in the nose. The P-51H-5-NA can be outfitted with the following ordnance: The P-51H-5-NA is a high altitude turn fighter. With its sleek laminar-flow wing, classic American M2 Brownings, high-visibility cockpit, and immensely powerful engine, the P-51 is most definitely a force to be reckoned with. This initial iteration boasts a significant speed advantage over many Rank III aircraft, but sacrifices are obvious. And one should, for the greatest advantage is the ability to disengage any unfavourable battle and like with many things, the early Mustangs do not disappoint. 90% Upvoted. The production model (NA-126) was designated as the P-51H, and it most closely resembled the XP-51F. The camera faced towards the back and down and took pictures providing battlefield reconnaissance. I initially thought it was ugly when I saw it in War Thunder but now I'm growing to like it. The plane may not climb very well but does retain the traits of an energy fight… It was a special vehicle offered during the 2015 Thunder League as a reward for completing 5 Air challenges. All rights reserved. The P-51H-5NA is the last propeller plane in the USAAF fighter line. 1,000 P-51H Mustangs were ordered on 30 June 1944. Handling and speed are diminished when bombs are loaded, which is the same for all aircraft. In Realistic Battles the combat role is a tricky game. Mustangs saw action against the Japanese in the Aleutian Islands but a majority of them found their way to the Mediterranean theatre. The fuel amount in the fuselage tank was increased to 55 gallons. Removable ammunition boxes were added, and new ammo doors were included as well. The British Rolls-Royce Merlin was selected for testing in five converted Mustangs, and the performance of the fighter increased dramatically. The P-51H-5-NA is the last propeller plane in the USAAF fighter line. P-51H-1-NA 44-64161, flown by Major J. D. Onerem, was used for extensive testing by the USAAF from the 4th of April to the 14th of April. The P-51H Mustang by Curtis Fowles, MustangsMustangs In July of 1943, U.S. Army approved a contract with North American Aviation to design and build a lightweight P-51. The Mustang was very successful in this role and an additional order for a further 300 aircraft was placed. The key to winning in this aircraft is to stay fast, stay high, and pick your battles. save hide report. This sped up the re-arming process and also helped to improve the laminar flow of the wing, which had been impeded by the earlier ammunition door design. The RAF received these aircraft behind schedule in October of 1941. Minimal elevator authority without the engine producing net thrust as the plane relies heavily on streamline effect along the tail for elevator authority. 38 mm Bulletproof glass in front of the pilot. Thus all engagements, may they be Boom & Zoom or Boom & Run style, should be performed below said altitudes. Skins and camouflages for the P-51H-5-NA from live.warthunder.com. This page was last edited on 26 December 2020, at 17:41. The U.S. Army was given fourth and tenth aircraft. Only the lack of acceleration in prolonged dogfights is a trap that even experienced pilots still fall into. "The Need for Speed" is a worthy credo for all Mustangs. Finally, the Chinese P-51K has the same BR and, IIRC, uses the same engine and settings as the block 30, however P-51Ks usually had a different propeller, which I believe is very slightly worse. B. 6 x 12.7 mm M2 Browning machine guns, wing-mounted (260 rpg outer + 260 rpg mid + 390 rpg inner = 1,820 total), 2 x 500 lb AN-M64A1 bombs (1,000 lb total), 2 x 1,000 lb AN-M65A1 bombs (2,000 lb total), 6 x HVAR rockets + 2 x 250 lb AN-M57 bombs (500 lb total), 6 x HVAR rockets + 2 x 100 lb AN-M30A1 bombs (200 lb total), 6 x HVAR rockets + 2 x 500 lb AN-M64A1 bombs (1,000 lb total), Great top speed for a prop-driven aircraft, Respectable armament of 6 x 12.7mm (.50 calibre) machine guns, One of the most manoeuvrable P-51s in the game, .50 calibre machine guns aren't nearly as powerful compared to cannons, but will still do the job, High crew training and purchase cost - the same as the F-80A-5 Shooting Star, Can be up-tiered to fight against early jets, Limited WEP, once it runs out the planes performance drops dramatically. Log In. See more ideas about p51 mustang, wwii aircraft, mustang. Despite being originally based on the earlier P-51Ds, the P-51H shared little in common with the earlier models. In an RPG the Mustang would be a rogue, the damage dealer. Despite having ordered more P-51s, only the 555 were completed because of the end of World War 2; all P-51H Mustangs were built at the Inglewood plant in California. However, the 1100 hp Allison V-1710 engine had a poorer performance at high altitude, particularly above 15,000 feet which was above where the engine supercharger was optimized for. In the market for War Thunder Equipment? The engineers attempted to reduce the weight on every part they could, and the result was an aircraft 600 pounds lighter than the earlier Mustangs. These aircraft saw continued service until the later part of 1944 continuing to fill the Attacker and Recon role. An emergency dive to top speed will however fix this, if the pilot remembered to keep some altitude. This was because there was a larger amount of P-51D Mustangs available. The project was designated as the NA-105, and the contract specified five functioning prototypes for testing. The control surfaces lock up at high speeds which makes the Mustang a comparatively agile fighter when initiating combat, but this is quickly lost. Differences between the P-51D included lengthening the fuselage and increasing the height of the tailfin, which reduced the tendency to yaw. The best way to use the advantages of the aircraft's speed and climb-rate is to use boom and zoom tactics. Coupled with its manoeuvrability and acceleration deficits, the P-51 punishes any pilot who does not play to its strength, namely the top speed. It can be an extremely deadly aircraft if flown by an experienced pilot. Testing of the two prototypes started in October of 1941. The origins of the aircraft came about in April 1940, when the British Purchasing Commission approached the North American aviation company to design a fighter to augment those already in service with RAF Fighter Command. Unlike the P-51H, the F-82E had its guns inbetween the two P-51Hs. ... War Thunder Realistic Gameplay. Once the hostiles have dropped to a lower altitude Boom & Zooming can be engaged in.

Quadruple Hispanos are devastating: pressing the trigger will significantly slow down the P-51. Retreating may look the cowardice choice, but with the speed to disengage many options open up for reversals. P-51H Mustang, essentially a half of an F-82 (top speed 487 mph) Other. Tento stroj, který dostal označení P-51H dostal do vínku mnoho změn, které zahrnovaly drak i motor, díky čemuž překonával starší verzi D prakticky ve všech aspektech. Overall the P-51 likes to bleed speed in manoeuvres and the lost energy cannot be easily regained. Hence the accuracy is appalling after the first shots leave the barrels. The fuselage skin was made to be thinner than on the earlier Mustangs, but also was made from a lighter alloy. The main difference comes from the limited Allison power plant and its formidable armament of 4 x 20 mm Hispano Mk.II cannons. In general the pilot's survivability is great. It has a good climb rate which also gives it an option to put up a fight against jet encounters, being able to perform boom and zoom attacks as its energy retention is good. At the Supermarine factory, they did not have the data he was looking for so they simply weighed all the parts needed to build a Spitfire. This is especially helpful against armoured attackers such as the Stuka or IL-2. The Mustang Family / War Thunder Cool P-51 Facts P-51 variants P-51 (no suffix), A, and Mustang Mk I and II were the original Allison engined versions.

It was introduced in Update 1.49 "Weapons of Victory". The next evolution of this aircraft was designated Mustang Mk IA. P-51H The final production Mustang, the P-51H, embodied the experience gained in the development of the lightweight XP-51F and XP-51G aircraft. It differed visually in having smaller landing gear, there was no leading edge kink in the wing, the airframe was longer but thinner, and the belly air scoop was square like on the early Mustang variants. Embora esta versão do lendário caça a pistão chegasse demasiado tarde para tomar parte nas hostilidades da guerra, os pilotos do War Thunder poderão em breve subir aos céus com o melhor Mustang de sempre na atualização 1.71 Nova ERA! Lacking climb rate and high altitude performance the Mustang pilot needs to wait for the combat to come down to about 4,000 m (13,000 ft). While the Mustang looks quite defensive on first glance, it is a deceptive one. 6.35 mm Steel plate between the engine and pilot. The -9 gave less takeoff power than the V-1650-7, but with a water/alcohol mixture injection the wartime emergency power could be upped to 2,000 hp at 10,200 feet. These aircraft were originally named "Invader" by the USAAF, but soon changed to "Mustang" for consistency with the RAF version. Quickly darting in and out of combat to deal devastating blows, the P-51 in War Thunder is a DPS main, too. Whilst having great engine performance, the P-51H-5-NA can turn impressively as well, out-manoeuvring most of its German counterparts. Compared to its German and British counterparts, it outperforms them by a fair amount in engine performance. Both issues combined leave many pilots a gliding and/or burning example of why to avoid bomber's defensive fire. The engine will have a hard time hitting the "overheated" mark, even when using WEP. Additionally, the chin scoop for the engine was smaller than on previous versions. During the Korean War, the P-51D was chosen for combat instead of the P-51H, despite having less performance. The airframe and wings were strengthened to harness the power of the Merlin engine, which also resulted in the fitting of under wing stores now being an option. In War Thunder, the long-awaited P-51H will be making its way to the fourth rank of the American aviation tree with the upcoming update 1.71 “New E.R.A”. Overall this is a support fighter as in the current climbing meta engagements against higher flying interceptor-fighters are often deadly, as the Mustang then lacks the critical ability to choose the time of engagement. Two were kept by North American Aviation for internal use. After improving the firepower on the aircraft, begin focusing on performance upgrades. This is one of the main advantages of American planes: powerful engines, to out-climb and out-speed most of their German counters, because most of the time, even a 1v1 turn-fight with a Bf 109 and Fw 190 will result of you being defeated assuming the pilot knows how to fly, in order to avoid this, Boom and Zoom is the best way to get a kill with a P-51H-5-NA. Although this is caused by the too light air-frame which further causes vibrations and heavy shaking due to the wing-mounted position of all arms. Use caution though, as the engine will retain its heat when constantly on 100% power, so it takes a bit to cool down. Ground targets belts will give more consistent results as an attacker and the Air targets belts can be devastating against flying opponents. All rights reserved. © 2010—2020 by Gaijin Entertainment. Me 262 and Ho 229 are the biggest predators of this plane. Climbing should be done away from the expected combat zone (a.k.a. The North American P-51 Mustang was a single seat fighter which was designed, developed and entered service all during the course of the Second World War. See more ideas about north american, p51 mustang, mustang. The U.S. Army pulled 55 for themselves and they immediately saw service. Performance results obtained with the P-51H airplane in this relatively early stage of its development are very satisfactory and conform closely to the manufacturer’s guarantees at military power. The P-51 Mustang retains a lot of the traits that may be found in its later variants. Maximum normal power would be limited by a mechanical stop, for instance a wire across the throttle lever slot, but a more forceful push would break the wire, allowing extra power. Its turn rate isn't as good as some other aircraft at its rank so don't get into long turning battles that take up large amounts of energy. Although, the U.S. Army decided to not immediately place orders. Despite a large number of P-51H Mustangs being delivered before the end of the war, no P-51Hs saw combat in World War 2. See more ideas about mustang, p51 mustang, fighter jets. Turn time: 32.9. The very small engine cowl plate could just as well be absent. retreating from combat) the very generous backseat armour will absorb any stray shots. It also uses high octane fuel, which means it has considerable susceptibility to fire. The second version was known as the P-51H-5-NA, featuring a new, taller tail than the earlier variants; 280 were produced. or The P-51H-5-NA can also be used as a strike fighter, as it can have great loadouts of combinations of bombs and rockets for this purpose. The P-51 Mustang can seem a very underwhelming aircraft at first. Since the P-51H-5-NA has a good engine and fast climb rate, you should be higher than ALL the enemies since it's going to be hard for allied planes to turn fight with both German and Japanese planes. The wheels had new disc brakes, the oil cooler was moved from the belly scoop to in front of the oil tank, and the oil used a heat exchanger for cooling. The first P-51H flew on 3 February 1945, piloted by Bob Chilton. Fortunately the combat flaps have a very high speed tolerance and greatly benefit it in dogfights. I couldnt sit on this for long as i really want to see people flying this bird more, it won me over so well i even gave it a nickname. On the upside, the good maximum velocity greatly benefits the energy retention coming out of dives and for staying out of trouble. For another downside is the sluggish acceleration which further causes a low rate of climb. That’s when the British Purchasing Commission approached North American Aviation to build Curtiss P-40 fighters under license. It is also an extremely fast aircraft and can outrun and outclimb almost all opponents in most situations. The first order of Mustangs to the British were designated Mustang I. Now more than capable of competing across all altitude bands and boasting a particularly long range for a single engine fighter, the Mustang was rapidly evolving into one of the most capable air assets of the entire war. It was considered to be superior to any other American fighter at the time, particularly at low level. ... Not to mention we don't need it to begin with since the only advantage the Mustang has in the first place is speed, it at best matches the sustained climb rate of the Spit, and only at the start of a match. There is a wrong way though, and that is to burn through your wet WEP trying to get to altitude. Using post-war engine settings, it generates substantially more power than earlier P-51 blocks. The P-51, when fully upgraded, is an extremely deadly opponent, especially as a rank II. A careful approach when leading up for a shot helps in conserving precious momentum, too. Also be sure to utilise the flaps: they are a major asset to the plane's overall turn-fighting ability and sometimes allow it to survive a turn-fight with Soviet aircraft. The P-51H-5-NA will not perform as good against jets, as it does not have comparable speeds. It turned out that the British had lower design standards for the Landing gear, angle of attack and side engine design loads. Without the instructor the manoeuvrability markedly improves in comparison, for the P-51 has generous stall characteristics and is an overall stable gun platform, as long as one does not pull the trigger. While retaining all features the earlier versions may offer, its powerplant is upgraded. The propeller used was the Aeroproducts 11' 1" 4-blade Unimatic, which was much lighter than the propeller used on the P-51D despite having wider blades.

If jets are present, try not to drop your speeds too much, as you may need to dodge multiple shots. Počátkem roku 1945 začali američtí inženýři testovat novou a odlehčenou verzi P-51 Mustang, která oproti standardní P-51D slibovala značný nárůst výkonu. It has good ordnance, capable of shooting any aircraft down with relative ease, as well as being able to dodge incoming attacks by jets. The US Army approved a contract with North American Aviation to design and build a lightweight P-51 Mustang in July of 1943. This plane is Rank IV American fighter. Note, do not perform flat turns, but rather slow, deliberate high Yo-Yos or Immelmanns for turning around. In fact, almost no parts used on the P-51H were compatible with the P-51D. Can't wait for it. Manoeuvrability is nothing to write home about (except roll-rate), especially without speed to burn. However, with the inaccuracy issues and the short fire windows, a more deliberate approach is necessary. It was used in the Korean war. With 125 rounds per gun the fighter has got plenty of ammo to kill about six aircraft and with 30 min of fuel minimum, returning to base will be a rare occurrence. By VJ Day, 370 P-51H Mustangs had been delivered, and production ended in November 1945 with a total of 555 P-51Hs produced.

Hey Folks, today its a review on the P-51H-5. the devastating air-targets belt, 20 mm guns on the Mustang are mounted in close proximity, dealing a deadly double punch when hitting, Can be very deadly in the hands of a skilled pilot, Hispano cannons overheat extremely quickly and are inaccurate unless upgraded, Low ammo capacity compared to machine gun-armed variants. See more of P-51 Mustang - War Thunder/Ash Arms on Facebook. The P-51H-5-NA is a rank IV American fighter with a battle rating of 6.3 (AB/RB/SB). At the Rolls-Royce factory, Schmued discovered the RM.14.SM - a new variant of the Merlin that improved the horsepower to 2,200. This page was last edited on 26 December 2020, at 17:09. North American's chief of design, Edgar Schmued, visited the Supermarine and Rolls-Royce factories in England in February 1943. A condition of the sale from North American to the British was to supply the U.S. Army with two samples free of charge. Trigger control is important, even more so as the Hispanos tend to overheat during long bursts. If you climb straight towards the enemy using WEP, you'll more or less match the Griffons; but by that point you'll be dangerously low on water to inject, without which the Mustang is inferior to the Griffons (although still at least competitive with just about every non-British fighter in game). As a Boom & Run fighter, avoiding air-drag inducing bullet holes by not getting hit is a far preferable option anyway. It has a tendency to break its wings while zoom climbing at speeds higher than 550km/h. Upon returning to the United States, Schmued initiated the design process for the lightweight Mustang.
