P-36C (with machine guns in both wings), still in service in USAAF got after 1941 new camouflage scheme. Upper surfaces were coloured in brown-green, bottom surfaces were coloured in grey. National insignia were also changed, there were no more red and white stripes on the tail, national insignia were new painted on the fuselage, left upper wing and right bottom wing. 'U.S.ARMY' letters stayed on the bottom wing, but serial number was there no more. In 1942 were deleted the red centers of the national insignia. |
