Corgi English Electric Lightning F.2A No 92 Squadron RAF Aerobatics Team Scale 1/72 AA494022

 

The English Electric Lightning was the Royal Air Force’s first and only supersonic interceptor of British design, famed for its blistering climb rate and thunderous performance.
This Corgi AA49402 model represents the Lightning F.2A of No. 92 Squadron RAF, based at RAF Gütersloh, Germany, during its service as part of the Squadron Aerobatics Team.

Finished in the striking blue spine and tail markings that made 92 Squadron aircraft instantly recognisable, this 1:72 scale die-cast model perfectly captures the speed and character of Britain’s Cold War icon.

The model includes a display stand, detachable undercarriage, and authentic RAF roundels and fin flash, presented in a collector’s presentation box. A superb addition for enthusiasts of classic British jet fighters and Corgi Aviation Archive models.
