Interesting observations: 1: This B-25J is camouflaged. By the end of production, bare metal was standard. 2: It lacks the side gun pods below the cockpit even though the associated reinforcing plate is fitted. (It is the slightly raised plate that the name & artwork is on.) Fitting of these guns was not universal to the sub-type, especially for level bombing in MTO OR ETO
