I'd say mock-up then. There are too many detail missing for it to be real.

On the carrier stencil/decal question, I'd suggest the clear rectangular background indicates decal. On the other hand there was another method of applying markings as seen on these items recovered from the interior of my Fox that appear printed or stamped.
