When did the US 8th AF start painting the tails of their PRU Mosquitos red?
I recall seeing [B&W] P-51 gun camera footage of a F/F Mosquito shoot down.
I guess that going natural metal meant the US-made aircraft stood-out some,
but British camo-finish planes had added yellow rings to their national markings due to F/F issues.
didn`t the 56th FG add an extra wing white star to their [camo] P-47s too?
There were a number of USAAF vs Soviet incidents also, but hushed up for propaganda reasons.
