From the red rudder and red/yellow checkered nose I would guess 357th FG
of WWII....the outfit Bud Andersen and Chuck Yeager were in.

I'm no expert and will inevitibly get something wrong here but they look
like late war P-51Ds. Heck, they could even be Korean era.

Assuming the CGI/FX people attempted to include some reality reference I'd
start by checking out the markings . Perhaps "JAS" was a real aircraft?
Check for color markings and see if you can get a match. Looks like a
yellow spinner with a red tip and rear checker board....
