Paul,,Thanks for the correction,,,That's what I get for relying on Seri to do my typing ,,


The letter P in P51, P-38, P47 and other WWII aircraft stood for Pursuit later changed to F for Fighter as in F14, F15, F22 and so on.
What would a bird of prey be without weapons,
The first attached photo show 3 of the 6 50 caliber machine guns on the full scale Mustang. The Mustang was one of the fastest aircraft of its time due to its power plant, wing design and aerodynamics. Note how the guns are built into the leading edge of the wing creating very little drag.
The owner asked if we could incorporate guns into the concept and we came up with these unique directional lights. They had to be custom made per side and now that the rough fit was a success the housings are getting the same aluminum plating treatment. Once they come back and polished we will add sequential LED high intensity lights and lenses. It should be a real nice light show when the flasher are on.
