Was there a navalized version of the P-38 Lightning?

Nope. Think of where you would put the tailhook. Don't even think about
putting on the aft wing (I don't know what you call it). If you put it
on the fuselage you're sure to break the tail as it dips down

Actually, that's not an insuperable problem. Think De Havilland Sea
Vampire, Sea Venom and Sea Vixen..
