1/48 P-51D Mustang IV Scale History and Model

The P-51D Mustang IV is renowned for its engineering and long range capability during World War II. First requested by Great Britain in 1940, it later operated in several theatres and escorted B-29s on Pacific missions. The P-51D's bubble canopy and upgraded armament distinguish the type, and production reached 7,956 examples.

This Hobby Boss 1/48 kit recreates the Mustang's form with accurate panel engraving and tidy structural detail. With over 40 parts on five sprues, the static model provides a focused build that rewards careful fitting and finishing for a display quality result.

Assembly and Finish Advice
