Twilight Tear is a North American P51 Mustang.  Described by most as the best fighter of the war.  What made it work right was a British Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engine fitted into an American airframe.  A classic example of "hands across the water" collaboration to win the war. 

Twilight Tear is shown with drop-tanks that allowed the plane to escort B-17 and other bombers deep into the heart of Germany. 

With twin engines and plenty of firepower in the main body, it was an extremely formidable fighter.

P-38's fought in the European and Pacific theatres. 

In the background is a painting of P-40 Warhawks with the Flying Tigers in China at the beginning of World War II.

A clear story to the enemy.

This place is an exceptionally well done museum of World War II history.

Highly recommended to all.
