About this model
Beginning with the first production P-38D in late 1939, the P-38 family saw three major improvements. The first was the replacement of the unreliable 37mm cannon with a 20mm in the P-38E, the first model to see action. The second was the addition of bomb racks in the P-38G, capable of carrying large drop tanks as well as bombs, making the P-38 a strike aircraft and an escort fighter in addition to the interceptor that it already was. The third was the addition of much more powerful engines in the P-38J, resulting in a larger chin radiator as well as larger turbocharger intakes, allowing the machine to compete with high-altitude German fighters such as the Fw-190D. What began as a high-performance defense fighter evolved into a long-legged assassin in the Pacific and then a Swiss army knife…
