Again a weird one 
Just a quick question if anyone has any info. on this bird, I've been able to find 8 pictures out there of it, and some speculation as to it's colors. It seems its either an all Aluminium color or a Grey/Aluminium Cowl (which looks like this more from the pics), does anyone have anymore info on the I-16 that Japan had (Mongolian pilot defected to Japan with it, landed in Manchuria I beleive)
I'm trying to figure out if it had the usual green I-16 type 10 cockpit, if the wheel wells were light blue (if the aircraft was all grey, it should be grey wheel wells as well?) etc I'll post a pic to help out
From this picture it seems like there are 2 colors, Aluminium on the cowl, and Grey on the rest of the aircraft (if you guys want more pics I can post em) If someone reads Russian Cyrllic. can you decode this for me ?
This is for my ever growing captured aircraft used by Japan collection
