The incredible, untold story behind the rise of the P-51 Mustang, the World War II fighter plane that destroyed the Luftwaffe and made D-Day possible
When the P-51 Mustang began tearing across European skies in early 1944, the Allies had been losing the air war for years. Staggering numbers of bomber crews, both British and American, had been shot down and killed thanks to the Luftwaffe’s superior fighter force. Not only did the air war appear grim, but any landing of troops in France was impossible while German fighters hunted overhead. But behind the scenes, a team of visionaries had begun to design a bold new type of airplane, one that could outrun and outmaneuver Germany’s best.
Wings of War is the incredible true story of the P-51 Mustang fighter and the unlikely crew of designers, engineers, test pilots, and army officers who brought it from the drafting table to the skies over World War II. This is hardly a straightforward tale of building an airplane–for years, the team was stymied by corruption within the defense industry and stonewalled by the Army Air Forces, who failed to understand the Mustang’s potential. But when squadrons of Mustangs were finally unleashed over Hitler’s empire, the Luftwaffe was decimated within months, clearing the skies for D-Day. A compelling, character-focused narrative replete with innovation, determination, and bravery, Wings of War is the never-before-told story of the airplane that truly changed the course of World War II.

The Spitfire and Hurricane saved the allies, not the P51.

The Spitfire was an outstanding fighter - perhaps best ever. But it could not fly to Berlin and support the bombers. The P51 was designed to do this, especially with the use of drop-tanks. All 3 are fine aircraft and perfectly fit for purpose - they just had different purposes.

The title says ’saved the allies’. As per my previous post, the spit and hurricane did that in the BoB, without which there wouldn’t even be a D-day. The spit could also be equipped with drop tanks, they were flying over Japan with them in 45. Not to mention it was the first prop to shoot down a jet. The P51 has its place, but by the time it arrived in numbers the war was already decided.
