N. G. Golodnikov,
from mid-1942 re-equipped with aircraft such as Mustangs
I would evade being shot at accurately by pulling so much g-force...that you could feel the blood leaving the head and coming down over your eyes... And you would fly like that for as long as you could, knowing that if anyone was trying to get on your tail they were going through the same bleary vision that you had and you might get away... I had deliberately decided that any deficiency the Kittyhawk had was offset by aggression. And I'd done a little bit of boxing – I beat much better opponents simply by going for [them]. And I decided to use that in the air. And it paid off.
Actually, the P-40 could engage all Messerschmitts on equal terms, almost to the end of 1943. If you take into consideration all the characteristics of the P-40, then the Tomahawk was equal to the Bf 109F and the Kittyhawk was slightly better. Its speed and vertical and horizontal manoeuvre were good and fully competitive with enemy aircraft. Acceleration rate was a bit low, but when you got used to the engine, it was OK. We considered the P-40 a decent fighter plane.

British employment of the Mustang was a complicated evolution of early contracts for P-40 performance-like, Allison-engined NA-73 and NA-83 series Mustangs I and II, similar P-51B series III , then phase-in of licensed Packard-produced Rolls-Royce Merlin-powered later series Mustangs , with latter debuts rolling all the way into the winter of 1943-1944
