BTW, the last P51 Mustangs ever to fly as combat planes were in the DR. That was the local Air Force until about 20 years ago when they sold the last ones and changed them for some shitty Brazilian planes

I'm not that familiar with the p38 because that was a much earlier model. In fact, if I'm not mistaken I think there was a p47 model in between.

I'm still trying to figure out what the P51 Mustang (a WWII era air-superiority fighter) has to do with the AGM-114 Hellfire (a modern, multirole self-guided surface-to-surface and air-to-surface configurable missile system).

And here is the Lockheed P38 Lightning - A twin boom, central cockpit nacelle fighter bomber.

As you can see, the only similarity, outside of both being airplanes, is that they both have two engines.

BTW, I could never forget the one I mentioned since it shot a few rounds at my house!

man its so funny how this thread has completly switched to wwII aircrafts LOL but the p38 lightning is my second favorite of all and I've encountered a p51 flying in at a local airport and was beautiful. The p38 was just far supior to all others (in my opinion) my grandfather flew one during the war it just so happened that during a dog fight a downed plane split his elevator in half the plane didn't fail instead hew flew it back to base belly up!! Interesting huh??
