The North American Mustang is considered to be the best piston- engined single-seater fighter plane of the second world war. The speed of its design was in itself a record: British workmen,built one in 117 days in 1940! But only after it had been fitted with a Rolls-Royce Merlin engine and flown with the US Air Force bombers was its deadly efficiency fully recognised.
