Re: Mustang IV in ACSEA
Gentlemen:
I trust that this isn't too late. From the AM 78s there were 235 Mustang IVIVas in the KM 100-741 block that were shipped to the FE. The first 4 to make it were KM 147, 154, 169 and 174. They were received in March 1945. The rest were received at varying times in August 1945. The greatest number were in the block of KM 500-741. The majority were SOC in April 1946 or August 1946. It would appear that none of these aircraft were combat deployed though I could be wrong at that as I am not an expert at reading the AM 78s. There were 3 recorded accidents with the following organizations: TWDU, 320MU, and 5 CMU. Hopefully this will help a bit. Ted51abcdk
