1/100 B.A.C. Lightning F.Mk.6 - Profile of an Interceptor

The B.A.C. Lightning F.Mk.6 achieved recognition for its stacked twin-engine configuration and interception duties through the Cold War period. The later F.Mk.6 variants benefitted from more powerful engines and supplementary wing tanks, extending operational range and mission flexibility.

Scale Modeling Notes and Collector Guidance

Tamiya's 1/100 kit recreates the Lightning's defining lines while keeping assembly approachable. The compact scale is ideal for collectors who want accurate silhouettes without an overly ambitious build. A carefully finished example complements other era-specific models in a focused display.
