The North American A-36 Apache (listed in some sources as Invader but also called Mustang) was the ground-attack/dive bomber version of the North American P-51 Mustang from which it could be distinguished by the presence of rectangular slatted dive brakes above and below the wings. A total of 500 A-36 dive bombers served in North Africa the Mediterranean Italy and the China-Burma-India theater during World War II before being withdrawn from operational use in 1944.
