This photo is definitely a chop jop. At the very least, all the background
except for some schmuck's hand has been masked. Looks like parts of the aft
section and neck were cut out as well. And the whole image is suffering from
severe JPEG compression. Quality is about on par with the Weekly World News.
However, if it's legit then it'd be a decent parts set. Gray macaroni bricks,
lotsa wing pieces, some hinge pieces...
