The legendary P-51 Mustang was an excellent fighter, but it also proved to be a universal photo-
reconnaissance plane. Its performance: speed, ceiling, armament, and great range meant that it
could efficiently reach a distant target, photograph it and safely return to the base. To become a long-
range aerial spy, the Mustang, unlike, for example, the Spitfire, required only the installation of
photographic equipment.
The reconnaissance Mustang F-6C was a modification of the P-51B/C fighter. Most of the F-6Cs were
built at the North American factories in Dallas and differed from the fighters produced there mainly in
the openings for installing a camera. Photo equipment was installed at modification centers in Love
Field and Kansas City. 230 serial F-6Cs were produced this way. In addition, more than 50 P-51B/C
fighters were converted into reconnaissance planes in overseas depots and combat units. The
reconnaissance Mustangs performed well both for high-altitude missions with a vertical camera and
for low-level tactical reconnaissance using an oblique camera. Their armament also allowed them to
engage in equal combat with enemy planes. They were used by the US Army and Allied Air Force in
European, Mediterranean, and Far East theatres of operations.
