I've been blocked at home during a pair of weeks, because of health problems.
So, I decided not to loose allthis free time, and started a couple of repaints, which will be uploaded in the next hours.
The first upload will concern 2 Royal Egyptian Air Force Tomahawks and 1 SAAF Tomahawk.

In April 1943, six ex-RAF P-40s were handed over. Six more followed later, and between May and October 1943 No.6 Squadron, renumbered No.17 (Fighter) Squadron under its new CO, Fit. Lt.Salah Farid, was re-equipped with P-40 Tomahawks, No.17 quadron was then placed under the control of the RAF Air Officer Commanding Air Defense East Mediterranean for the protection of the Nile Delta, along No. 2 Squadron.
Most of the job was done by Brian Hill, who made the original texture. I just made the transformation to Egyptian texture.
