{"product_id":"1-48-p-38-lightining","title":"1\/48 P-38 Lightining","description":"This is an Academy plastic model kit. The P-38 Lightning first flew in 1939. The Army Air Corps instantly recognized that the Lightning had catapulted aircraft design well into the future. At a time when 325 mph was considered very fast, the over 400 mph speed of the P-38 was a shock to friend and foe alike. In the early days of WWII, the Lightning went through a series of teething problems, but once solved, the later versions were awesome long-range fighters, escorts and heavy weapons carrying platforms. Col Charles Lindberg and Col Charles H. McDonald flew the \"Putt Putt Maru\" in the Pacific. Academy has recreated the P-38 Lightning in 1\/48 scale in a unique plastic kit. You can build the Lightning in one of four ways: as the P-38J \"Putt Putt Maru\", P-38J \"Droopsnoot\", P-38L Pathfinder, or F-5E Photo Recon version. The kit includes fully engraved panel lines and realistic PVC tires, a highly detailed cockpit interior and landing gear compartments, two five pod HVAR bombs, 500 lb bomb, Drop tanks, two 4.5\" Rocket Launchers, and a beautiful decal set.","brand":"HORIZON HOBBY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39690896146641,"sku":"ACY2215","price":29.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0506\/2538\/0562\/products\/148_P-38_Lightining.jpg?v=1622332082","url":"https:\/\/www.adventurehobbiesandtoys.com\/products\/1-48-p-38-lightining","provider":"Adventure Hobbies \u0026 Toys","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
