P-51 Tyre treads?


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Eduard have released several Brassin wheels for their P-51D.

So far, I know of the following…

*Diamond tread.

*Block tread.

*Oval tread.

*Cross tread.

*(Still to be released) Pointed cross tread.

 

I know practically nothing about these treads. Does anyone know which was the most common? Is there a very rare one in there? Was there a type which was used only in the Pacific? Or only in Europe? Is there a post WW2 type in there? Is there type which disappeared right after WW2, so that it is unsuitable for a Korean war Mustang?   

 

Cheers, Stefan.
