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.

https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fava.org.ru%2Fiap%2F19g.htm

https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=ru&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fsoviet-aces-1936-53.ru%2Fabc%2Fk%2Fkutahov.htm

Based off what I have found it looks like #10 may not have been his plane at all. 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?

Hi,
I don't see traces of red noses on those pages. Besides the P-39s with white spinner seem all camouflaged, not OD.
