Although it could not out-turn the A6M Zero at speeds under 200 mph, its speed and rate of climb enabled it to make multiple high-speed passes in combat, and the armour of Japanese aircraft was more vulnerable than German aircraft to the P-38’s tight gun groupings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt was P-38s that were involved in the intercept mission that took the life of Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, the architect of the attack on Pearl Harbor. This mission involved 16 P-38G Lightnings meeting two G4M ‘Betty’ transports and six escorting Zeros. Both transports were lost, as were two Zeros, for the loss of one P-38.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContents:\u003cbr\u003e- 6 x Warlord Resin P-38 Lightning aircraft\u003cbr\u003e- 6 x Advantage flying bases\u003cbr\u003e- 1 x Punchboard with game tokens\u003cbr\u003e- 1 x Aircraft card (P-38J Lightning)\u003cbr\u003e- 1 x Doctrine card (Sustained Dive)\u003cbr\u003e- 7 x Aircraft Trait cards (3 x Heavy Hitter, 3 x Great Dive, 1 x Agile)\u003cbr\u003e- 1 x Sheet of waterslide aircraft markings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModels supplied unassembled and unpainted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Warlord Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48017977999603,"sku":"123403","price":40.05,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0706\/8699\/8771\/files\/123403-p-38-lightning-squadron-772412009-1.webp?v=1781200675","url":"https:\/\/radaddel.de\/en\/products\/p-38-lightning-squadron","provider":"Radaddel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
