BAC Lightning T4 – A Brief History

The BAC Lightning T4 is a two-seat version of the famous British interceptor fighter, used mainly by the Royal Air Force (RAF). These aircraft served from the early 1960s until the late 1980s, that is, during the Cold War era. The T4 variant was used primarily for training purposes, as well as to support operational units. The Lightnings were stationed at bases in the British Isles and in West Germany, considered a crucial part of rapid response to aerial threats from the Warsaw Pact.
