The P-38 Lightning was the Army's fastest and most heavily armed fighter. The
concentration of firepower in the Lightning's nose was so effective that a
one-second burst could destroy an enemy plane. In the Pacific Theater, Lightning
pilots downed more Japanese aircraft than pilots flying any other Allied
airplane.


"I don't need a P-47, P-52, or a F-4U. Just give me a P-38 Lightning and I'll
be happy"
Between 1942 and 1945, the thunder of P-38 Lightnings
was heard around the world. U. S. Army pilots flew the P-38 over Europe, the
Mediterranean, and the Pacific; from the frozen Aleutian Islands to the
sun-baked deserts of North Africa. Measured by success in combat, Lockheed
engineer Clarence "Kelly" Johnson and a team of designers created the most
successful twin-engine fighter every flown by any nation. In the Pacific
Theater, Lightning pilots downed more Japanese aircraft than pilots flying any
other Army Air Forces warplane.
