Such a shame that a Finnish diver found the world's only B-239 in a lake, then russian business man somehow stole it and then it was sold to US.
I am pretty sure that it won't have the finnish paintings on in a few years, they restaurated it in Tikkakoski, Finland and it is looking as it was when it was shot down+ old paints are still on (Basicly cleaned up and rebuilt it)
BW-372 ? Didn't know the finns lost it again ! The buffalo is my all-time favorite and is the reason for me getting IL-2FB in 2004, in first place !
