Check out this web-site:

395th Nose Art Gallery

It appears FM/A produced this livery with historical authenticity in mind. The serial matches, the nose art/names, both port and starboard are correct, markings look correct.

One thing is not correct with the model: no antennae. This is a bit disappointing... especially considering that FM went to the trouble of adding a rear-view mirror... but no antennae? Go figure.
