I don't recall the Lightning either, but as you say AB, they didn't rate that much attention then. You ought to post the pictures fastjet45
I also saw the same sight of a T-188, can't remember the year though! Fortunately, it was put to one side, didn't get used as a target and wound up being rescued and put in a museum
Edited to say, after refreshing memories, I missed seeing one of the two 188's that went to Foulness, they were XF926, which went to Cosford in 1972 and XF923, which was scrapped at Foulness after being used as a target
