1:72 Airfix 04054A English Electric Lightning F.2A - Jet Aircraft Plastic Model kit

The English Electric Lightning F.2A is one of the most iconic British Cold War jet fighters, renowned for its blistering speed and unrivalled rate of climb. Capable of exceeding Mach 2, the Lightning stood out with its unique engine configuration – two Rolls-Royce Avon engines mounted one above the other – making it a true aviation marvel.

Introduced in 1968 as an upgraded version of the F.2, the F.2A featured a larger ventral fuel tank, a square-cut fin and redesigned wing leading edges, delivering improved performance and extended patrol time. This formidable interceptor was operated by RAF No. 19 Squadron in Germany, playing a key role in NATO air defence during the Cold War.
