<> "British "Lightning" fighter.

The "Lightning" fighter is a twin-engine single-seat jet fighter developed by the British Electric Company, which made its first test flight in August 1954 and entered service in 1959.

The biggest design feature of the "Lightning" fighter is that in the rear fuselage, the two Ebon engines are ingeniously stacked up and down, the aircraft adopts nose air intake, and there is a fixed adjustment cone with built-in fire control radar in the round air intake ** of the later fighter type.

The wing design of the Lightnings fighter is also unique: the leading edge is swept back 60 degrees with a notch (used as a vortex generator), and the trailing edge is cut flat along the longitudinal axis of the aircraft.

The aircraft's main guns are two Ardennes 30mm cannons, and four external hardpoints can carry bombs and missiles, including the "Firelight" short-range air-to-air missile and the "Red Top Good Concealment" air-to-air missile.

Basic parameters. Fuselage length disturbance: meters.

Fuselage height: m.

Wingspan: m. Maximum take-off weight: 20752 kg.

Maximum speed: 2100 km/h.

Maximum range: 1370 km.
