Before the bubble-canopy P-51D became the icon, the razorback P-51B was already changing the air war over Europe. With its distinctive "Razorback" fuselage spine and Malcolm hood canopy, the B-variant had a character all its own — and Tamiya's 1/48 kit captures it with the precision and fit quality the brand is known for.
This kit gives you the full combat loadout: two 500 lb bombs, two drop tanks, and a pilot figure, along with three marking options so you can personalize your build. Whether you're recreating a long-range escort mission over Germany or building a display piece, the P-51B is a rewarding build that stands apart from the more common D-variant kits.
