Re: Savoia-Marchetti SM 79 marking

SM79s had this marking (also on the white fuselage band sometimes) during the Abyssinia campaign 1940-41, presumably a theatre addition; I've also seen it on 2 or 3 SM81s and Ca.133s. there. I wouldn't think such a distinctive shape would need extra recognition markings though ?
