English Electric (BAC) Lightning F.2A/F.6 – Trumpeter 01654
The English Electric Lightning was the Royal Air Force’s (RAF) sole all-British-produced Mach 2 fighter. It was built during the 1950s, at the height of the Cold War, and its speed and striking power put it far ahead of its competition. The Lightning’s earliest version, the F1, debuted in 1959, succeeded by the modified F1A in 1961. This boxing of Trumpeter’s 1/72 kit of the BAC Lightning represents the upgraded F.2A interceptor or F.6 introduced in 1964 with a redesigned wing and great fuel capacity. The finished model has a wingspan of 14.8cm.
