The P-51B-7 modification was one of the first to receive British Merlin engines, licensed as Packard V-1650. Thanks to the new engine, the Mustang performs great at low and medium altitudes, where it can slowly speed up to about 700 km/h. The aircraft retains energy well in level flight, and thanks to its strong fuselage, it can survive over 800 km/h in the dive. There are few aircraft on its rank which performs better in vertical or horizontal maneuvers, but still the P-51 is slightly inferior to them, while maintaining a stable high max speed at altitude and good rate of climb.

Four wing-mount M2 machine guns, designated according to the Swedish classification as Akan m/45, are not bad, but surely not as good as cannons. But for mixed battles, the J26 (B-7) can be equipped with bombs - a pair of 100, 250 or 500-pounders.
