The F8C Lightning is a small 1-person heavy fighter and is the civilian variant of the F8A Lightning from Anvil Aerospace. It is a reward reaching the Concierge level Wing Commander[1] and will also be able to be purchased in the Persistent Universe after completing a yet unspecified task in Squadron 42.[2] It has six weapon hardpoints, one turret mount and two missile racks.

Few vehicles employed by the proud men and women who serve in our Empire's Navy inspire the awe of the legendary F8 Lightning. A force to be reckoned with, the F8 has secured Humanity's freedom from numerous threats at home and abroad countless times. Now, that same next generation space superiority fighter is available to become a part of your personal fleet with the Anvil F8C civilian variant.
