The DCS: P-51D Mustang offers both highly-detailed simulation and easy-to-play "game" mode options for both hardcore and casual gamers. When in simulation mode, this is the most authentic simulation of the P-51D Mustang that has ever been done for the PC. Enjoy both the thrill of flying this warbird and operating its various weapons against a variety of ground and airborne targets.

An interactive training system puts you in the cockpit with an instructor as he walks you step-by-step of learning to fly the Mustang.

A powerful yet easy-to-use mission editor allows you to create your own missions and campaigns. A one-click Mission Generator also allows you to instantly create battles as small or large as you wish.

Fly online with built-in server browser that supports up to 32 players in both head-to-head and cooperative gameplay. Fly online with other DCS aircraft like the Black Shark and the A-10C Warthog.


War Emergency Power (WEP) has been implemented.
Tail wheel dynamics reworked for more realistic performance.
Realistic cooling system added and integrated into the full engine thermodynamic model.
Landing gear physics have been reworked to have realistic behavior and interaction with the fairing doors and down-lock latches.
Fairing doors can now be damaged or ripped off at over-speed conditions.
Engine wear or damage due to high manifold pressure at low RPM, overheating, and overuse of WEP has been implemented.
Oil pressure is now viscosity dependent. Oil dilution is now possible and has direct impact on engine performance.
The front dash gauge panel and the K-14 gunsight are now spring suspended.
The K-14 gunsight has been reworked using new data from K-14 documents.
The rudder anti-booster tab now works correctly.
Control stick and rudder pedals movement are now limited due to hinge moments.
Flap drag has been adjusted.
Lamps brightness and electro-dynamic gauge readings are now voltage sensitive. You can best see this during engine start.
The starter can now be burned out due to overheat if overused or overloaded.
Guns jam due to over-G firing has been added.
The radiator shutters' thermo-sensors can be damaged now.
All aircraft failures are now reported correctly in debriefings.
Sounds for the primer, pilot parachute opening and flapping during decent, and pilot landing have been added. The canopy sound has also been improved.
Corrected tendency for left roll at takeoff.
Adjusted Red Tail pilot art.
Improved bailing out animation.
Fixed landing light on with air start.
Fixed cockpit tooltip for the gun switch.
Corrected radio information entry in Mission Editor.
Improved AI P-51D.
Fixed SCR-522 resetting in some situations.
Adjusted G impact on airframe.
Improved pilot normal maps.
Adjusted landing gear collision model.
Corrected trim performance in multiplayer.
Adjusted wingmen takeoff behavior.
Improved prop RPM model.
Sounds for control stick and rudder movement have been added.
