Macchi M.C. 205V Veltro

Any chance of someone providing a picture of the Macchi M.C. 205V Veltro in service withe the Egypt AF? They had 42 of them, and they were used in the 1948 – 1949 war with israel.

Check out the latest copy of Air Enthusiast magazine, there is a three-part series on the ’48 War, some nice shots in Part 2 of the Macchi……
