Title: Desert Lightning
Post by: Greebo on November 24, 2019, 09:06:55 AM

Thanks as always to Lyric1 for finding me the info for this skin.

In July 1942 the 14th Fighter Group flew their P-38 Lightnings to England via Iceland. In November they were transferred to the Algeria to form part of the 12th Air Force and here performed escort missions for US bombers, as well as long range strikes on Axis, trucks, shipping and transport aircraft. This 14th FG aircraft was given a field-applied camouflage scheme of brown splotches to help it blend into the desert terrain.
