Reminds me of the incidents in the UK where in 2009 the British National Party (BNP) and then later in 2014 Britain First used images of a Spitfire to do a bit of rabble rousing against foreign types.

In both cases they used the image of an aircraft that carried the markings of a WWII RAF Polish squadron.

Driving through Mildenhall town earlier this week, I had to smile when I passed the local car dealership. On the name board is a cut out of .........(drum roll) a Mig 25 Foxbat.
It's been there for over 20 years, so even then, people couldn't get it right, could they?
