Inspired by the play of Tim Tebow our winning aerial show this week opens with the Corgi 1:32 scale
U.S. P51D Mustang - 'Jersey Jerk' from Wartoyz for $97.99.
Many people consider the P-51 Mustang the best fighter of WWII. Its combination of speed, range, maneuverability, and firepower gave it great versatility. Its use in all major theaters of the war included long range, high altitude escort of Bombers, close air support for ground troops, and photo reconnaissance.
This die cast 1:32 scale version of the U.S. P-51D Mustang depicts the 'Jersey Jerk' aircraft flown by Major Don Strait, Commanding Officer of the 361st Fighter Squadron, 356th Fighter Group stationed at Martlesham Heath in England, as it was seen in December of 1944. Strait was the Group's highest scoring ace with 13.5 kills.
