Intersting and new image!I think that the band on which the star lies has the original color, while the light parts are repainted with an unknown matt paint, perhaps more light shades that appear indistinguishable in the photo.

Very interesting plane! Its undersurfaces are painted with a dark color, compatible with the red of the stars. I think it was some high visibility livery for some exhibition.

A seemingly-standard "Ishachok".
But what is that thing in front of the windscreen?
A sighting device, or a windshield of something else behind the plane?

Hi Warhawk,

Support for tubular gun sight. I suppose this is an I-16 type 5 which is retrofitted with later type windscreen. It was quite common modification.

Cheers,

A very interesting "Franken-shak", indeed.
Thanks for an explanation!

Could it be red brown? I have seen such primer utilized on the Il-2 and LaGG-3.
