Our legendary 1/48 Aircraft Series welcomes a new addition in the form of the J variant of the Lockheed P-38 Lightning! The Lockheed P-38 Lightning was an American twin engine fighter aircraft produced by Lockheed; it was the first Lockheed fighter aircraft which was officially adopted into service. The P-38’s variants were used during World War II and they reached about 10,000’s production. Equipped with intercoolers under engines, the P-38J Lightning showed 1,450hp at high altitude and maximum 1,600hp, plus longer range courtesy of fuel tanks in wingtip leading edges in addition to the main fuel tank. As a result, the P-38J offered stable and astonishing performance at any altitudes, and gained great renown among American fighter aircraft.
