I would like to know if someone has any images of 32001 (the prototype lansen) in color?
Some sources point to that the wingtips and nose were painted blue, but was it painted in any different colors?

Send images if you have any!

I believe so, yes.
This image being from the promotional film “Attackflyg (1957)”?

Indeed, shows blue tips on the wings and tail too but no other paint, just basic metallic.

I managed to uncover a differently colored version of this, nicknamed Red U. Apparently it was the prototype from 1953?

1953 would be the second prototype i think, never heard of the coloring, where did you find this out?

was looking through reference images for upcoming projects.

I also aquired “Flyghistorisk Revy - 32 Lansen” which seem to point towards 32001 being 32-2 and the image i originally sent being 32-1.
