General Feel (compared to planes in the same tree):

The P-51A and P-51B both have incredible boost and breaks, allowing for easy green speed management. Both planes has excellent high speed turning, but the t7 P-51B distinguishes itself from its predecessor in vertical mobility, both in climbing power and green speed management, which in turn (accidental pun), allows it to more easily point its nose back down after climbing without using energy to swipe.

The 51B has only 1 type of machine gun, and thus, when it is out of ammo, all dps ceases. The 51A ,with 2 ammo types, was able to maintain a more continuous stream of fire with it's 4 7.62mm machine guns which had a very short reload time. This is not to say the 51A had more fire power, it just feels different. If you can manage to train your machine guns on the same part of the plane your rockets land, the p-51B can burst down an enemy. Pilot kills are quite easy to secure. You have the ammo for 2 wing clips easy, but it does take time to tear through it, which means you'll to be able to keep a good firing angle for a little while, which takes experience to set up.
