P-38 J/L/Droop Snoot/F5E

This 1:48 scale model reproduces the famous P-38 Lightning in its J, L, Droop Snoot, and F-5E variants — one of the most adaptable aircraft of World War II.

The distinctive twin-boom airframe with a central nacelle features engraved panel lines, detailed engines, realistic radiators, and movable control surfaces.

The cockpit includes complete instrumentation, a realistic pilot seat, an optical gunsight, and a clear canopy with reinforced framing.

Builders can choose between the Droop Snoot version (with a glazed nose for precision bombing) or the F-5E (photo-reconnaissance variant equipped with cameras).

Accessories include 500 lb bombs, drop tanks, .50 cal Browning machine guns, detailed landing gear, and openable weapon bays.

High-quality decals provide authentic USAF and RAF markings for several operational liveries.

A superb model that combines engineering precision, historical realism, and the unmistakable elegance of the Lightning in flight.
