The Revell 1/32 P-51B Mustang features decals for the “Berlin Express” as highlighted on the cover art.

William Bruce "Bill" Overstreet Jr. (April 10, 1921 – December 29, 2013) was an American fighter pilot and a veteran of the 357th Fighter Group, 363rd Fighter Squadron of the United States Army Air Forces during World War II. He is best known for his solo pursuit of a German Messerschmitt Bf 109G underneath the arches of the Eiffel Tower in 1944

In the spring of 1944, Bill Overstreet and his P-51B Mustang, the "Berlin Express", were near Paris when the action started, immortalized in the artwork by Len Krenzler. Overstreet had followed a Bf109 from the enemy fighter sortie that had attacked the US bomber group he was escorting. After most of the German fighters had broken off the attack, Overstreet and the German had begun a running dogfight, but as they neared Paris the Bf109 pilot had Overstreet on his tail. With the German pilot's desperation undoubtedly growing, he aimed his plane at the Eiffel Tower and in a surprising maneuver, flew beneath it. Undeterred, Overstreet followed right behind him scoring several hits which caused the Bf 109G to crash.

The P-51 Mustang is one of the most iconic US fighters of World War II. The P-51B was an early P-51 Model and could be known as a P-51B or P-51C depending on where the plane was assembled.
