The F-82 Twin Mustang is a heavy fighter manufactured by North American Aviation and was based on the P-51 Mustang. The F-82 was originally designed as a long-range fighter in World War II though its role was changed to night-fighting. On June 11, 1948, United States Air Force eliminated the P designation for pursuit and replaced it with F which pertains to fighter. The night fighter versions which were designated the F-82F/G required numerous modifications such as the removal of the right side cockpit to be replaced with a radar operators position lacking flight controls. The most significant modification was the addition of a long radar pod attached to the underside of the center wing. The first F-82G that became operational was in late 1948. In mid 1949, F-82 became widespread and some of the E/F/G models were used by the United States Air Force. F-82Gs were also deployed to the 347th Fighter Group in Japan.
