"Lightning Strikes" is the sixth studio album by the Japanese heavy metal band Loudness. The album, which was released in 1986, peaked at #64 on the U.S. Billboard Top 200. The album was produced by Max Norman.

The album is known as "Shadows of War" in Japan. The tracks are in a different track listing, and the song "Ashes in the Sky" is known as "Shadows of War". There is also a slight difference in some vocal melodies.
