Aviation history was build on these experimental planes. The pilots were fearless as they pushed the envelope.

Some unbelievable advances in modern warfare were made in WWII. Probably more than any other time in the history of warfare.

The twin mustang became a production aircraft and was used for many years after WWII. It became the F-82 and was in service from 1946 to 1953. It also served in the Korean War and was involved in the first air to air kills for the U.S.

I was aware of turboprop use in Korea then, I'd also read of such use in Vietnam, though the f-82 designation I hadn't heard of before, many thanks.
