Cavalier Aircraft of Sarasota, Florida, was best known for remanufacturing P-51 Mustangs as civilian executive fighters and counter-insurgency aircraft. In 1968 it fitted a Rolls-Royce Dart turboprop to a Mustang airframe and created the Turbo Mustang III, registered N6167U. The turbine gave it a long new nose, wingtip fuel tanks and much better performance and payload for ground attack. The project went to Piper, and its work led to the PA-48 Enforcer, which the U.S. Air Force tested in the 1970s and 80s.
