Repainted P-51D Mustang serial number F-338, the aircraft assigned to an Indonesian pilot Captain Ignatius Dewanto who was credited down with an aerial victory. Alex Sidharta adds: "The only AURI pilot who has ever shot down an enemy aircraft is Captain Ignatius Dewanto as mentioned in the article. He flew P-51D serial F-338 shooting down [an A-26 piloted by] CIA Allan Pope in PPRI/Permesta Conflict."
