Painted as a P-51D of the 322 FG, the famed "Tuskegee Airmen", with distinctive red tail. This P-51D actually served in Europe at the end of WW 2 in the 352 FS, 353 FG. In December 1946 it was transferred to the Swedish Air Force. In 1961 it went to the Dominican Republic Air Force, and was sold to a US buyer in 2009. Assigned FAA registration N722WR. It was never restored to flying condition and was acquired by the museum in 2013, where it has been restored to display condition.
