Lightnings over Riyadh

RSAF E.E. Lightning F.52 and T.54 over Riyadh.
The Royal Saudi Air Force bought a number of ex-RAF F.2's and T.4's and called them F.52 and T.54. It was an interim solution until the purpose-built F.Mk.53/T.55's could be delivered since the Saudi desperately needed fighter aircraft because of the clash with Egypt along the Saudi/ Yemen border.
