Iranian T-6 in very unusual markings, on display at the Aerospace Exhibition Center, Mehrabad International Airport, Tehran. Note the modified fin/rudder and tail wheel, as well. Either that, or it may be the tail section from some other sort of aircraft!
Besides, it has no engine:
Also note – on image in Gkozak’s post T-6 have not-broken glass in cockpit forward part; and on this image some glass is broken.
And the plane was painted by man, which absolutely understood nothing in aviation. This painter wanted only one – to paint the plane most brightly, and – in his opinion – it is attractive. It is not real Iranian colour scheme.
In their museum are more “unusually painted” aircrafts. For example, A-26B Invader (44-34759, former US-registered N956R). Sometimes it looked like this (airliners.net):
and sometimes it looked like this (michaelprophet.com):
Note national Iranian colours on it’s rudder !!!
Also note another colour scheme of aircraft.
(Although all of us know well, that Iranian Air Forces did not use any Invader, anytime).
It looks as if they paint planes as it is pleasant to them, without any authenticity – “THEY MUST BE PAINTED – AND PAINTED ANYWAY !”:D
