<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"FAQPage\",\"mainEntity\":[{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Can I fly in a P-38 Lightning?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"No. The P-38 is a single-seat WWII fighter and the few airworthy Lightnings are private warbirds not offered for rides. You can, however, fly in several genuine military jets today via MiGFlug.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Why does the P-38 have two tail booms?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"The twin-boom layout housed the two turbo-superchargers and radiators behind each engine and carried the tailplane clear of the central nacelle, letting Lockheed use two turbo-supercharged Allison engines while keeping the pilot and guns in a slim central pod.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Who was the top P-38 ace?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Major Richard Bong, with 40 victories, the highest-scoring American ace in any war, all scored in the P-38. Thomas McGuire was second with 38, also all in the Lightning.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Did a P-38 really kill Admiral Yamamoto?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Yes. On 18 April 1943, P-38G Lightnings flew a long over-water ambush and shot down Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto over Bougainville. Credit was split between Rex Barber and Thomas Lanphier; historians now largely favour Barber, but the US Air Force still records it as shared.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What was the P-38's compressibility problem?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"In steep, fast dives the airflow over the wing neared the speed of sound, the nose tucked under and the controls locked up, sometimes fatally. The fix was underwing dive-recovery flaps, added in 1944 and standard on the P-38L.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Did the Germans call it the fork-tailed devil?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"That is the traditional story, der Gabelschwanz-Teufel, but no primary German-language source for it has ever been produced, so it is best treated as folklore.

Lockheed had never built a fighter, but its team under chief engineer <strong>Hall Hibbard<\/strong> and a young <strong>Clarence \u201cKelly\u201d Johnson<\/strong> answered with the radical Model 22: a twin-boom machine with two turbo-supercharged <strong>Allison V-1710<\/strong> engines, tricycle landing gear, and every gun clustered in a central nose. The prototype XP-38 first flew on <strong>27 January 1939<\/strong> with Lt Ben Kelsey at the controls; two weeks later a record-setting transcontinental dash ended in a crash short of New York \u2014 but the raw performance was enough to launch production.<\/p>\n<p>The Lightning became one of the most versatile aircraft of the war: long-range escort, bomber-interceptor, ground-attack platform and, above all, the \u201ceyes of the air force\u201d in its <strong>F-4 and F-5 photo-reconnaissance<\/strong> forms. Because its <strong>one 20&nbsp;mm cannon and four .50-calibre machine guns<\/strong> all fired straight ahead from the nose, there was no wing-gun convergence zone \u2014 a pilot could hammer a target with concentrated fire out to long range. Its greatest theatre was the Pacific: America\u2019s two top-scoring aces of all time, <strong>Richard Bong (40 victories)<\/strong> and <strong>Thomas McGuire (38)<\/strong>, both flew it, and on 18 April 1943 P-38Gs flew a round trip of roughly a thousand miles to kill Admiral <strong>Isoroku Yamamoto<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>It was not without demons. In high-speed dives the P-38 met <strong>compressibility<\/strong>: the nose would \u201ctuck\u201d under and the controls go heavy, a trap that killed test pilots until dive-recovery flaps were fitted in 1944. Over northern Europe its unheated cockpit froze pilots at altitude and the Allisons proved troublesome, so it never dominated there as it did in the Pacific and Mediterranean. German airmen are often said to have called it <em>der Gabelschwanz-Teufel<\/em> \u2014 the fork-tailed devil \u2014 though no primary German source for the phrase is ever produced. Around <strong>10,038<\/strong> were built, and Honduras flew the last military examples into the 1960s.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pull\">All its guns in the nose, two engines, and the range to cross an ocean.<cite><b>The Lightning<\/b> \u2014 the only US fighter in continuous production through the whole of America\u2019s war<\/cite><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"deepset\">\n<details class=\"deep\">\n<summary><span class=\"no\">01<\/span><span class=\"t\">The Lockheed P-38 Lightning\u2019s origins: Kelly Johnson\u2019s twin-boom answer to a 1937 interceptor spec<\/span><\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">\n<p>The 1937 requirement demanded speed and altitude that a single Allison engine simply could not deliver. Lockheed\u2019s solution was to use <strong>two<\/strong> engines and, crucially, to give each a <strong>General Electric turbo-supercharger<\/strong> for high-altitude power \u2014 but the turbos, ducting and coolant radiators needed somewhere to go. The answer was the aircraft\u2019s defining feature: <strong>twin booms<\/strong> running aft from the engines to a shared tailplane, with the pilot and armament in a slim central nacelle. The layout kept the guns out of the propeller arc (so they needed no synchronisation) and clustered them on the centreline.<\/p>\n<p>The one-off XP-38 was fast enough to tempt the Air Corps into a coast-to-coast speed attempt on 11 February 1939. It covered the distance in about seven hours \u2014 a record pace \u2014 but iced its carburettors on the approach and crashed short of Mitchel Field, New York. The airframe was destroyed; the idea was not. A 13-aircraft service-test batch was ordered, and the Lightning was on its way.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<hr class=\"divider\">\n<section>\n<div class=\"wrap\">\n<div class=\"kicker\">Design &amp; Engineering<\/div>\n<h2>What makes it special<\/h2>\n<div class=\"cards3\">\n<div class=\"ecard\">\n<div class=\"num\">01<\/div>\n<h3>All the guns in the nose<\/h3>\n<p>Unlike wing-gunned fighters, the P-38 packed <strong>one 20&nbsp;mm Hispano cannon and four .50-calibre Brownings<\/strong> into its central nacelle, firing parallel straight ahead.

The eventual fix was a set of <strong>dive-recovery flaps<\/strong> under the wings, which restored lift and let the pilot recover; they arrived late in the P-38J production run (commonly cited as the J-25 block, spring 1944) and became standard on the P-38L.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"deep\">\n<summary><span class=\"no\">03<\/span><span class=\"t\">The P-38 Lightning in Europe: frozen cockpits and troublesome turbos<\/span><\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">\n<p>In the Pacific the Lightning was king; over northern Europe it struggled.

You <b>can<\/b>, however, fly in several genuine military jets today \u2014 see <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/flights-prices\/\">migflug.com\/flights-prices\/<\/a>.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Why does the P-38 have two tail booms?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">The twin-boom layout housed the two turbo-superchargers, radiators and tailwheel-era plumbing behind each engine, and carried the tailplane clear of the central nacelle. It let Lockheed use two turbo-supercharged Allison engines while keeping the pilot and all the guns in a slim pod on the centreline.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Who was the top P-38 ace?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">Major Richard Bong, with 40 victories \u2014 the highest-scoring American ace in any war. All of them were scored in the P-38. Thomas McGuire was second with 38, also all in the Lightning.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Did a P-38 really kill Admiral Yamamoto?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">Yes. On 18 April 1943, P-38G Lightnings flew a long over-water ambush and shot down the aircraft carrying Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto over Bougainville. Credit was split for decades between Rex Barber and Thomas Lanphier; historians now largely favour Barber, but the US Air Force still records the kill as shared.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>What was the P-38\u2019s compressibility problem?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">In steep, fast dives the airflow over the wing neared the speed of sound, the nose \u201ctucked\u201d under and the controls locked up \u2014 sometimes fatally. The fix was underwing dive-recovery flaps, added in 1944 and standard on the P-38L.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Did the Germans call it the \u201cfork-tailed devil\u201d?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">That is the traditional story \u2014 <em>der Gabelschwanz-Teufel<\/em> \u2014 but no primary German-language source for it has ever been produced, so it is best treated as evocative folklore rather than documented fact. The English descriptor \u201cfork-tailed devil\u201d is genuine and widespread.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>How many P-38s were built, and are any still flying?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">About 10,038 were built between 1941 and 1945, the P-38L being the most numerous. Only a couple of dozen survive, and just a handful remain airworthy as warbirds.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Was the P-38 used in Europe?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"a\">Yes, but with mixed results. Poor cockpit heating and troublesome turbo-Allisons in the cold made it less favoured over northern Europe than the P-51 Mustang, even as the same aircraft dominated the Pacific and Mediterranean.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section>\n<div class=\"ad\">\n<div class=\"adin\">\n<div class=\"kicker\">The part of the collection you can touch<\/div>\n<h2>You can\u2019t fly the Lightning.<br \/>These, you can.<\/h2>\n<p class=\"adp\">Some legends only live in museums \u2014 others are fuelled and waiting.
