My favorite plane. Also thought the
best the Chinese (red or white) had at the time was P-40’s.
Coolest prop fighter ever my opinion.

I found an article on these:-
“At the end of World War 2, many hundred airplanes, among them dozens of Mustangs stationed in the CBI theatre (CBI = China – Burma – India) were transferred to the Nationalist Chinese Air Force (CNAC – Chinese Nationalist Air Corps). After a short period of time, the number of serviceable aicraft started to decrease due to lack of spares and technical know-how of the maintenace crews. The Nationalist Chinese Air Force also lost a number of Mustangs through capture by the Red (Communist) Chinese forces, during hostilities. Some of these Mustangs subsequently were put into service under the red star, i.e. Red Chinese Air Force or better known as PLAAF = People’s Liberation Army Air Force.”
“During the hostilities between Chinese Nationalist and Red Chinese forces, many P-51 Mustangs were captured and later used to some extent by the PLAAF (People’s Liberation Army Air Force).”
