New Silver 56 Squadron Lightning and Shackleton MR2

New Silver 56 Squadron Lightning and Shackleton MR2

We have just added a silver colour scheme 56 Squadron F1 Lightning and a Shackleton MR2 to the embroidered clothing range.

The silver 56 Squadron Lightning complements the existing 5 Squadron and 11 Squadron Lightning F6 clothing designs.

The Shackleton MR2 is in the earlier white colour scheme and complements our Sea Grey Shackleton MR3 aircraft.

56 Squadron Lightning F1

The Lightning F1A embroidery is based on the 56 Squadron Firebirds display aircraft that were based at RAF Wattisham in the early 1960s.

The F1A Lightning was a very early development of the aircraft type and featured only missiles with no gun. The focus at the time was rate of climb performance and high speed.

Shackleton MR2

The new Shackleton embroidery is based on the MR2 version and is in a white colour scheme with dark grey upper bodyside.

The Shackleton MR2 development saw the aircraft fitted with an upgraded radar which was housed in a new radome behind the bomb bay doors.

The design depicts the dorsal gun turret. This turret was removed shortly after entering service but I have modelled it in place.
