The North American P-51 Mustang is undoubtedly one of the most iconic fighters of World War II. Known as the "Cadillac of the Skies," its range, speed, and firepower were decisive in turning the tide of the air war over Europe, allowing Allied bombers to escort even the most distant targets in the heart of Germany. The P-51 was not just a machine; it was the tool that ensured air supremacy.

The 357th Fighter Group, known as "The Yoxford Boys," was one of the most successful fighter groups in the U.S. Eighth Air Force. With the noses of their Mustangs painted in a red and yellow checkerboard pattern, they were a feared sight for the Luftwaffe. The group produced more than 40 flying aces, including legends like Chuck Yeager and Bud Anderson, establishing itself as an elite unit.

This exclusive artwork by Alexandre Guedes depicts the P-51D Mustang, codenamed B6-S, nicknamed "Old Crow." This was the aircraft of Colonel Clarence "Bud" E. Anderson, a living aviation legend and triple ace with 16,25 confirmed aerial victories. Flying with the 363rd Fighter Squadron (363rd FS), Anderson was known for his exceptional vision and flying ability, a master of aerial combat. In a remarkable feat of skill and luck, he flew 116 combat missions without ever being hit by enemy fire. The name "Old Crow" was a tribute to his favorite brand of Bourbon whiskey.
