Finland. Some aces has strange claims. For examle: Juutilainen has P51 Mustang and P38 Lightning in the kills list. Amazingly enough, because the opponent had no such planes...
:evil:

Hmmm... right... So, what´s this then?

Tomatang sounds appropriate... I mean, it looks a bit like Tomahawk ;)

Well Sneaky, you are wrong...

If you take a closer look at the front end of the A/C you can clearly see that it´s not a merlin engine...

But I can be wrong about the name aswell since I can´t see any dive-brakes, if there are dive-brakes it´s a A-36A and if not it´s a pre merlin mustang.... :roll:


Any way one can undestand why Juutilainen put it up as a P-51...
