Episode: P-38 Lightning (6x7)
Episode Plot:
True to its name, the P-38 Lightning struck with speed, power, and deadly might, dominating the air over Europe and the Pacific during World War II. The U.S. military's need for a faster, higher-climbing warplane led to the P-38's...
Series Plot: A winged fighter that hasn't lost a fight in 26 years, a lifesaver that's part plane and part chopper, and an attack helicopter our enemies call the Black Death. These are America's undisputed kings of the sky: the F-15 Eagle, the V-22 Osprey, and the AH-64 Apache. And their success stories are as remarkable as they are improbable. Witness their turbulent journeys, brought to life through rarely seen combat footage and the stories of the dedicated pilots and teams who fly and maintain these ultimate Air Warriors.
Episode plot: Innovative engineering allows the P-38 Lightning to fly faster and climb higher than any other World War II warplane. A twin-propeller fighter with heavy armaments packed into its nose, the P-38 becomes one of America's premiere combat planes during the war. It was one of the most unique and deadly warplanes of WWII, with devastating agility and unmatched speeds of over 400 mph. But before the P-38 Lightning seized control of the air from the Japanese and the Germans, some of its pilots were forced to learn on the job. Follow its dogfighting journey, from Alaska to Africa and from Berlin to Tokyo, as the Lightning earned its name, blazing into battle and delivering a killer strike into the hearts of its enemies.
