Surprised there wasn’t an all black paint scheme for this aircraft as a nod to the types involvement with the CIA & their support in the bombing & sinking of KRI Hang Tuah Ex HMAS Ipswich J186 Bathurst class AMS. (I could already see the memeing for that Indonesian name of that ship…).

I intend to purchase this aircraft soon as I’ve always an affinity for the A-26/B-26, the option for soviet bombs on an American airframe is interesting & the lower BR is an odd choice but that’ll help in several lineups I for see. (Sucks it’s a hard nose, vs a glass nose, but we can’t have everything).

TBF those are separatist factions, so I can understand why it wouldnt be appropriate to apply it to the ID aircraft (even if they eventually reintegrated back into the country)
