At the end of August 2019, the 355th Equipment Maintenance Squadron, at Davis Monthan Air Force Base, began repainting an A-10 Thunderbolt-2.  They claim it’s going to look like a World War-2 P-51 Mustang!

It’s part of preparations for the USAF 2020 air show season.

But wait, this isn’t the first A-10 to be painted like a P-51.  In 2013 the Michigan National Guard got one painted to represent a P-51(F-6A) of the 107th TRS Red Devils during the invasion of Normandy.

Can you find the P-51(F-6A) painted A-10?

Have they painted any Thunderbolt-2s to look like their namesake, the P-47 Thunderbolt?
