Looks like someone managed to yank the machine guns out of the nose before the recovery.

MGs and panels were recovered some time ago to prevent theft and also ascertain state of preservation

Saw the original post--absolutely amazing.

Anybody see signs of how/why it went in? Battle damage?

I read Black 16 and Yellow or Orange 15
