Lockheed P-38J
Lightning
P-38 Lightnings served in every theater during WWII.
Measured by success in combat, Lockheed engineer Clarence "Kelly"
Johnson created the most successful twin-engine fighter ever flown by
any nation. In the Pacific, Lightning pilots downed more Japanese aircraft
than any other Allied warplane.
