The aramment was actually 4x.50cal machine guns, Browning M2. It is simply a modified P-51C. Any Mustang given a TP-51 designation, appear to be modified in the field, not actually produced. They were used in the field for combat training and joyrides for ground crews. They often had the rear fuel tanks removed to add the extra seat. In fact, alot of the P-51's that are still flying have been modified to be twin-seaters. A "TP-51B" was called The Stars Look Down was used as a high-speed observation post for Eisenhower during D-Day. It might be easy to add to the Mustang Collection being worked on, but there really isn't any point to it from a combat perspective. The "co-pilot" didn't actually do anything. It would only be nice for flying with another person on board for a shortened range.
