Oh ya... There was a P51 Mustang as a chase plane.

The Republic P47 Thunderbolt was a World War II era fighter aircraft produced by the United States from 1941 through 1945. Its primary armament was eight .50caliber machine guns and in the fighterbomber groundattack role it could carry fiveinch rockets or a bomb load of 2,500 pounds (1,103 kg). When fully loaded the P47 weighed up to eight tons (tonnes) making it one of the heaviest fighters of the war. The P47 was designed around the powerful Pratt & Whitney R2800 Double Wasp engine which was also used by two U.S. Navy fighters, the Grumman F6F Hellcat and the Vought F4U Corsair. The Thunderbolt was effective as a shorttomedium range escort fighter in highaltitude airtoair combat and ground attack in both the World War II European and Pacific theaters.

The P47 was one of the main United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) fighters of World War II, and served with Allied air forces including France, Britain, and Russia. Mexican and Brazilian squadrons fighting alongside the U.S. also flew the P47.

The armored cockpit was relatively roomy and comfortable, the bubble canopy introduced on the P47D in particular offering good visibility. A presentday U.S. groundattack aircraft, the Fairchild Republic A10 Thunderbolt II, takes its name from the P47.
