PLEASE NOTE: The Dynamic Vectors special edition print range is professionally produced to order. There will be a delay of a few days whilst your artwork is carefully prepared by our team.

We are honoured to be unveiling this special edition print to mark 70 years of the 48th Fighter Wing; part of our new range, offering the digital artwork of Chris Dodd, to complete a wonderful set of products alongside our range of patches.

Chris’ artwork is beautifully rendered on weighted high-quality paper and comes in A3 format, making it ideal for framing alongside official patches, or storage in bespoke folders.

This special edition depicts the beautiful ‘Liberator’ jet, F-15E Strike Eagle 92-0364, breaking out of formation in full afterburner at dusk, with vortices streaming from its wing tips. On the other side of the three-ship, its 2022 stablemate mirrors its turn - the mighty F-35A Lightning II. Pulling up from the centre is a type that hints at the Wing’s 70-year legacy, written across France and the United Kingdom - the beautiful F-100D Super Sabre, which was operated at Lakenheath between Autumn 1956 and August 1974. The aircraft featured is that of Colonel Stanton T Smith, commander of the 48th during 1958 when the blue/yellow/red of the constituent Tactical Fighter Squadrons were first seen.

At the bottom of the print are proudly displayed the badges of the 492nd, 493rd, 494th and 495th Fighter Squadrons which serve at RAF Lakenheath today.

We sincerely hope our customers enjoy this incredible artwork, completing our set to recognise the 70th anniversary.
