Crafted 1/48 Lockheed P-38H Lightning Model

The Tamiya 25199 kit presents a faithful 1/48 scale rendition of the Lockheed P-38H Lightning, known for its twin-boom layout and wartime performance. The kit balances authentic shape with parts that suit display and diorama work.

Variant Accuracy from 1943

This kit depicts the P-38H produced in May 1943, complete with the upgraded 20mm cannon and a 1,500kg bomb load capability. It includes newly designed components to show the enlarged supercharger intakes and the reinforced undercarriage details.

Build Details and Cockpit Fit

At 240mm fuselage length and a 330mm wingspan, the model is engineered to sit correctly when weights are fitted. The cockpit contains wheel-style controls, radio fittings and a throttle box, and optional parts like the main landing gear air duct give modellers scope to refine the appearance.

Is this kit suitable for a first time modeller?

The kit contains small, detailed parts and optional fittings, so a beginner may find it challenging. New modellers should allow extra time and consider simpler kits first.

Are decal markings included for multiple versions?

The kit supplies markings for at least one historically referenced aircraft. The painting guide shows correct schemes to help accurately place decals and finish the model.
