This well-known scheme is offered by both Tamiya & AccMin.
My question: Was '07' a late, swept wing "arrow" (Tamiya) or a straight wing (AccMin)? Try as I might, I can't tell from the pix I have.

(The decals in the Tamiya offering are a much better match to the three photos available to me.)

It appears the interpretation on this site is that 07 is an 'arrow.' Any dispute?

Surely. Look at the image in Red Stars of Geust, it doesn't leave doubts.
