F-82 Twin Mustang - Dual Fighter SOL'S Hoodie

The F-82 Twin Mustang, a marvel of post-World War II aviation, was the last American piston-engine fighter ordered into production by the United States Air Force. Born from the need for long-range escort fighters in the Pacific Theater, the Twin Mustang was a unique aircraft that essentially fused two P-51 Mustang fuselages together, resulting in unparalleled range and firepower. Operational between 1946 and 1953, it served primarily in the early stages of the Cold War, including a notable role in the Korean War where it claimed the first three North Korean aircraft shot down. With its distinctive dual-cockpit design, the F-82 was a symbol of innovation and versatility, capable of fulfilling roles from night-fighting to reconnaissance. Despite its short service life, the Twin Mustang left a lasting legacy as a bridge between the propeller-driven fighters of World War II and the jet age that followed.
