TF-51D
The TF-51D is a two-seater training variant of the P-51D and comes included for free in the DCS World client. While the variant (and in-game model) itself is a two-seater, with room for an instructor and a student, the module does unfortunately not support multi-crew the way the L-39 is.
Functionally, the difference between the P-51D and the TF-51D is simply one of armaments. The TF-51D has none (although some of the cockpit controls remain), nor does it have a holographic sight to aim the non-existing weapons. Between this and the added seat, the TF-51D is ever so slightly lighter and faster than the P-51D, but not in any way that will be noticeable outside of very tightly flown races.
