This work is copyrighted and unlicensed. It does not fall into one of the blanket acceptable non-free content categories listed at Wikipedia:Non-free content#Images or Wikipedia:Non-free content#Audio clips. However, it is believed that the use of this work in the article "No. 7 Squadron, Indian Air Force" :

To illustrate the subject in question
Where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information
On the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation ([1]),

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Copyrights.

To the uploader: this tag is not a sufficient claim of fair use. You must also include the source of the work, all available copyright information, and a detailed non-free use rationale.

fair use rationale text: This image, No.7 Tempest.jpg, is being linked here; The copyright status of these images are not clear to the uploader, since grant of copyright prior to January 1946 would nullify this in India due to expiration. It has been suggested that these images are subject to current, valid copyright. However, I (ranam) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because it depicts visually, and for want of freely available images, the use of Tempest aircraft by the Indian Air Force. Moreover, the images do not come from a commercial source. There is no loss of revenue. Though the images are not in public domain the Indian Information Act states that they can be used to dissipate information. Therefore this image is in fair use.
