P-38 versus the P-51, thats a tough one..........
P-51 is a natural fighter aircraft, P-38 is two aircraft joined together,
I'd say the P-38.............. Unless the baron is involved then it would be fun lol........

YOU FOOLS ITS NO CONTEST!!!
The merlin engine is better than two allisons. Six .50's are better than 4 .30's and a 20mm. The stang was more agile, and was a smaller plane (harder to shoot)
If you want to compare two planes, do the Mustang, and Spitfire. Now theres a great argument

I love them both equally. But I'm in a P-38 mood, so: P-38.

Given a choice I would pick the P-47 every time, awesome aircraft and my favourite US Warbird, but of the two choices it just has to be the Mustang if for no other reson than it got a propper engine once we got hold of it

Everyone loves the P-51.
Except me. And about 80% of the non-american members here.
