I have not taken credit for this plane.

Thank you to A.F. Scrub for allow modifications.

I just ran the Mk_mdl program and decided to share the conversion.

Please enjoy.

There are two models : A model USA and a model RAF. (These are different models and skins) I like both models very much.

Guns in the Nose?

Mustang I (Lend Lease NA-73) - Allison powered (top cowling air scoop), two .50 in lower nose, two .50 in wing inboard of four wing .30. This armament is probably for the initial batch of the 320 planes ordered. An additional 300 planes were ordered for a total of 620 and there probably was armament changes replacing the four wing .30 with two .50, not to mention field conversions.

Mustang IA (P-51) - Allison powered (top cowling air scoop), four wing 20mm

Mustang II (P-51A) - Allison powered (top cowling air scoop), four wing .50, two wing racks for 500lb bombs or drop tanks

Mustang III (P-51B/C) - Merlin powered, four wing .50, two wing racks for 500lb bombs or drop tanks

Mustang IV (P-51D) - Merlin powered, bubble canopy, six wing .50, two wing racks for bombs or drop tanks, HVAR rocket pylons

A-36A - Allison powered (top cowling air scoop), two .50 in lower nose and four .50 in wings, two wing racks for 500lb bombs, fitted with dive brakes under wings

Allison powered with three-blade prop.
Merlin powered with four-blade prop.

This is the best I make of my literature. However there maybe discrepancies from publisher to publisher of these data.

Cheers,
O

Misson,

Good morning. I included the .dp modification in the original upload, I figured it would be easier that way.
 
Here are somemore files I tweaked for my own Mustang MkI install, I'll post these also for everyone.

A little more fine tuning of the DP and panel.cfg are in the attached. Changed the rockets to the FDG tubes (as used early war) and updated the misc section to meters for altitude (as I understand this unit of measure is used for this section). The first Mustang MkI arrived at the Liverpool docks on October 24, 1941.

Note: Link does not work anymore. I don't know if this is still available in the library.

Rami and Misson, these are more files if you want to include for the Mustang MkI download. The pylons and tanks posted earlier are freeware and contain no restrictions nor permissions required by the original author. The tank is actually a P-40 tank that I made stand alone for 75 gallon tank. Also just a little tweaking on the aircraft.cfg for the static pitch and height and eyepoint height for the VC gunsight alignment.

Cheers,
O

Note: I should mention there are some gauges that are not showing in the pics below because they were not in my gauge folder that I was using at the time.
 
Hello All,

I forgot to remove the break numbers from the DPs. Since this model is a CFS2 conversion it does not have the breaking parts and the numbers will cause multi-planes appearing when the plane is damaged. So the attached DP has the numbers removed.

Cheers,
O
