The Lockheed P-38
Lightning was one of the most
successful fighters in the Pacific
during WWII. Designed in 1937 - 1939
in answer to an Army Air Corps
requirement for pursuit aircraft in
twin-engine configuration to achieve
a specific speed/weight ratio with a
given amount of armaments.
In March 1940, the
French and the British put the P38
into service. After the fall of
France in June 1940, the British
christened the plane "Lightning".
The P38 was used extensively as a
long-range escort fighter to protect
heavy bomber operations in both
Europe and the Pacific, escorting
bombers at altitudes between
18-25,000 ft. The P-38 was credited
with destroying more Japanese
aircraft than any other U.S.
fighter.
Over 10,000 P38s were
manufactured in all; becoming the
only U.S. combat aircraft that
remained in continuous production
throughout the duration of American
participation in World War II. After
the war surplus P-38s were also used
by other air forces around the
world.
