The armament consisted of four 12.7 mm machine guns and one 20 mm gun. As the aircraft could take 4000 pounds of bombs (1814 kg) or 5 missiles. At the time of the U.S. entry into the war, the P-38 was its fastest and most heavily armed fighter. P-38 modification L, which was built 3 848, showed even better performance. Improved flaps, which were introduced in later instances of the P-38-J became standard for the modification of L, thanks to the improved Aileron system P-38-L at high speeds showed an amazing speed of rotation around its axis . This model has highly detailed engines and working flaps.
