They were also used in the Mediterranean Theatre of Operations and in the Burma and China campaigns. Apart from providing escort cover, Mustangs flew ground support missions and were actively involved in combating the V-1 rockets.\r\nOf these, 900 were handed over to the RAF, the Polish Air Forces in Great Britain, the <a href=\"http:\/\/armahobbynews.pl\/en\/blog\/2021\/12\/22\/kangaroos-on-mustangs-no-3-squadron-raaf-in-italy-1944-45\/\">RAAF<\/a>, the RACF and the Free French, who all operated them as the Mustang Mk III.
