Camouflage | Quite unique: the tail looks like a three-color camouflage in a disruptive pattern (no mottle). The wing appears to be polished or gloss-painted. The fuselage appears to be painted in the middle color used on the tail. |

Remarks | Unclear whether the picture is taken in the UK, or in Germany. The man studying the nose looks very civilian, suggesting the former. |
