The P-38 Lightning was one of the most noteworthy fighters of the Second World War and due to its enormous fire power it was used in the Pacific and on the European front. From 1943 onwards, the P-38J was to become the first really effective Lightning. Top speed 666 km/h. Extensive modifications were already incorporated in the subsequent P-38L. This version also had the best performance of all the P-38s; 3923 were built. In Europe it was used reinforced for ground attack roles and received the nickname "Fork-Tailed Devil".
