The English Electric Lightning is an iconic British jet fighter, used primarily by the Royal Air Force (RAF) during the Cold War period. It entered service in the 1960s and served as an interceptor aircraft until the mid-1980s. The Lightning was known for its incredible performance and could exceed twice the speed of sound (Mach 2). The aircraft was stationed at RAF bases in the United Kingdom and West Germany, protecting NATO airspace from potential threats from the USSR.

The Late Type wheels are characteristic of the final versions of this fighter, corresponding to the technical standards of the F.6 and F.3 models used up to the withdrawal of the Lightnings from service.

Difficulty rating: level 2/5 – the set requires basic modeling skills and care when working with resin, but assembly should not pose problems even for moderately advanced modelers.
