oh yes, everything is restorable, and that one is in remarkable conditions as well! In fact I wouldn't restore it, we already have flyable P-40s, considering how complete it is it would be nice to put it in a museum as it is, since a restoration would get rid of the original paintjob and panels.

That is definitely a Hawk 87 RAF name Kittyhawk, not the early Hawk 81, known to the RAF as a Tomahawk.

An amazing find.

I hope they are able to secure it.

Amazing! Thanks for sharing. I wonder what happened to the pilot? Great forced landing.

I also wonder just how many other well preserved wrecks there are in the world's deserts.
