This Curtiss P-40M White 35 is characterized for some interesting characteristics:
- the white eagle emblem on the engine cowling;
- part of the panels of the engine cowling characterized by the Dupont camouflage,
while the remaining part looks olive drab, probably with dots in Medium Green
and repaintings with soviet green;
- the odd shape of the 3, whose upper part on the left side seems to be parallel
to the upper profile of the fuselage.
We don't know unit, place and date of the image.

Below, a detail of a plane with a white eagle that could be the same of the
photo above. It keeps a prey, perhaps a rabbit, with its talons. Note that there
is not visible difference of color between the side panels, so the plane looks
changed between the shots.
