Introduced in June 1941, the aircraft went on to be used extensively in the Pacific through WWII. The F variant was manufactured from April 1942 onward, and featured pylons for 150-gallon drop tanks to make it capable of longer bombing missions. Later P-38Gs had more powerful engines and could carry bigger 300-gallon drop tanks. The P-38 was used for interception, dive bombing, level bombing, ground attack, night fighting, photo reconnaissance, radar and visual pathfinding for bombers and evacuation missions, and extensively as a long-range escort fighter when equipped with drop tanks under its wings.\u003c\/p\u003eDrop Tanks \r\n\u003cp\u003eComes with parts to recreate two each of 150- and 300-gallon drop tanks.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003eAccurate Depictions \r\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures accurate depictions of early P-38 features such as slimline engine cowlings, intercoolers in leading edges, plus the curved canopy front.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003eCanopy \r\n\u003cp\u003eThe canopy can be assembled open or closed.
