Any photographic evidence for this red nosed P-39?
Looking around on numerous sites Kutakhov is photographed next to many partial photos of P-39's over his career with them. No complete image though with a #10 with a red nose.

Found this profile in a Russian book that I translated.
From the first link I posted I believe the photo has him listed in front of a P-39 with a number 1 visible and maybe the edge of a #0. Have the profile artists misunderstood what this photo is and who it was used by during the war?
