The Lockheed P-38 Lightning is a World War II-era American piston-engined fighter aircraft. Developed to a United States Army Air Corps requirement, the P-38 had distinctive twin booms and a central nacelle containing the cockpit and armament. Allied propaganda claimed it had been nicknamed the fork-tailed devil (der Gabelschwanz-Teufel) by the Luftwaffe.

Activation 1-5 fires non-guided HVARs (High Velocity Aircraft Rockets)

This is possibly plane #1 of my 2 planes I'm building for this challenge.
