The Lightning was the only British-designed and built Royal Air Force fighter capable of speeds exceeding Mach 2.
The Lightning will undoubtedly go down in history as another classic British fighter.
The Lightning was specifically designed as a point-defense interceptor—essentially a guided-missile air superiority fighter optimized for defending the British mainland against bomber attacks.
To reduce the fuselage cross-section and improve performance, fuel capacity was severely restricted. It was armed with two 30 mm ADEN cannons and two air-to-air missiles, initially de Havilland Firestreaks and later Hawker Siddeley Red Top.
