The North American Aviation P-51 Mustang is an American long-range, single-seat fighter and fighter-bomber used during World War II and the Korean War, among other conflicts

Indonesia acquired 26 P-51Ds from the departing Netherlands East Indies Air Force in 1949–1950 and later received 35 P-51Ds from the United States in 1960–1961. The Mustangs were used against numerous rebellions during the 1950s, such as the CIA-backed Permesta rebels in 1958–1961.

During this period, the Mustang scored the first and (as of 2022) the only aerial victory of the Indonesian Air Force, when on 18 May 1958, a P-51D Mustang piloted by Capt. Ignatius Dewanto shot down a Permesta's Revolutionary Air Force B-26 Invader piloted by Allen Lawrence Pope near Ambon. They were also used against Commonwealth (RAF, RAAF, and RNZAF) forces during the Indonesian confrontation in the early 1960s.

Indonesia received a shipment of six Cavalier II Mustangs (without tip tanks) delivered in 1972–1973 as part of "Peace Pony" program under Mutual Defense Assistance Act. The last time Mustangs were deployed for military purposes was during "Wibawa V" exercise in Mount Lawu, Magetan in February 1975. The Indonesian Mustangs were also used for filming Janur Kuning which was released in 1980. The Mustangs were replaced in 1976.
