The P-51D carried six .50-caliber machine guns and could protect bombers on missions deep into Germany. Captain William T. Whisner flew with the 487th Fighter Squadron, 352nd Fighter Group, and the name “Moonbeam McSwine” was associated with his wartime Mustang. His combat record extended beyond Europe: after the war, he also became an American ace in Korea. The name survives on a restored Mustang painted in his aircraft's markings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel Features \u0026amp; Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1:72 scale painted diecast North American P-51D Mustang.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRotating propeller.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMarkings of 'Moonbeam McSWINE', William T.
