Our highly detailed replica of the Curtiss P-40E Warhawk is decorated with dark green and brown camouflage scheme on the upper side, with grey underside. As well as the distinctive ?shark mouth? nose art, similar to the Luftwaffe Messerschmitt Bf 110s, our aircraft also features the famous ?Flying Tigers? artwork of this USAAF Fighter Group. The US Army lettering and blue and white emblems feature on the underwings and the blue and white emblem is also printed on the upper wings. The rear fuselage has a red band going right round the body in front of which is printed the number of the aircraft ? 108. Note the six gun barrels, a specific feature of the P-40E, three on each side of the front of the wings, finished in matt black.
