Title: P-40N "Butter Bean II"
Post by: Devil 505 on August 17, 2022, 11:52:50 PM

P-40N flown by Major A.L. Evans of the 89th Fighter Squadron, 80th Fighter Group. He flew this aircraft in combat over Burma while based at Assam, India in 1944. 15 bombing mission marks are painted on the port fuselage. Large skulls, the famous markings for the 80th FG, are painted on both sides of the nose. Serial numbers are black with the aircraft's tactical number painted in white above it. Aircraft is finished with a scheme typical of late P-40's, OD green with Medium Green splotches on the leading and trailing edges of the wings and stabilizers over Neutral Gray. National insignia has it's center circle in a lighter shade from the outline, presumably because it was originally without an outline.

Great job, Devil.  The kid in me loves those skull-head themed P-40s.
