Well, everyone around here knows how much of a Mustang fan I am so I hope this will all make sense. I have recently been researching the P-51D-5NA. In short, it was the first P-51D sub-variant to be used operationally and made it just in time to participate in the Invasion of Europe. It looks rather nice without the dorsal fin and actually had some handling problems that required the dorsal fin be applied. Anyways, most all of them are in invasion stripes.



I'd love to see Wolf make this one, but that's besides the point. Lt. Wolf is actually going to make a P-51H. Well, the P-51H was supposed to go into service in Europe, but the war ended too quickly so it was going to be the primary escort aircraft along with the P-47N. So, for what-if scenarios, the P-51H's would carry over the paint schemes from the 8th and 9th AF P-51D's fairly well and alot of the P-51H's in the Pacific would have the Tokyo Club paint schemes, but would the P-51H, along with the rest of the aircraft carry invasion stripes?

Would the USAAF, RAF, RCAF, RAAF, RNZAF, and all the other Allied Forces participating in Operation Downfall carry invasion stripes. Personally, I think they would, but what do you guys think... This question applies to all fighters, smalls, mediums, heavies, divers, transports and cargos, observation, gliders, and helis.
