This is already "folk art", when tanks on monuments were painted pink, and the coloring of airplanes from the Soviet legacy was limited only by the artist's imagination.

Are MiG-23ML and MiG-23MLA the same machine, or is there a difference?MiG-23ML, 20-26 (c/n 0390324255), flew with JG-8 as '488' ... although she seems to be not used with the painting in the unit but it is quite colourful.

There is a difference. The MLA was equipped with an upgraded radar with greater use of new semiconductor devices - it was 170 kg lighter than the ML version. The MLA modification could carry R-40 missiles.

He flew to the Czechoslovak Republic with two more Mig-23ML machines on December 22, 1982.
The aircraft first got into the air with us on April 25, 1983 and was piloted by F. Hlavica.
In 1984, the aircraft participated in the exercise STIT84.
The year 1988 became almost fatal for this machine, when on September 23, during the flight, all the oil leaked from the aircraft, but fortunately the pilot, Capt. D. Mládek, managed to get the aircraft back to base. After this assumption of an air accident, the R-35 engine was replaced.
Another engine replacement followed in 1991. In July of the same year, one of several aircraft representing our army at the British Air Day International air Tatto in Fairford. The aircraft was piloted by J. Miller. In the same year, it was presented on the first international day in our country. in Kbely.

In 1997, the Mig made 1,500 landings and the engines in Planá were replaced and the R1 was overhauled. It did not return to its home base in Čáslav until May 1998. Due to the modernization of the Čáslav airport, it flew from Náměšť nad Oslavou in August and September. It was decided to end the operation of Mig-23Ml aircraft by the end of 1998. The last flight action aircraft participates in October 15, when it flies a total of 1050 hours. Čáslav on December 9, 1998 piloted by Lt. Col. Josef Miler.
It is interesting that even in 1999 the aircraft is maintained in operation by aircraft repair shops in BB, where it is flown by local flying pilots, most often Maj. Zdeněk Ouda. It is also in operation in 2000, when the celebrations of the 60th anniversary of the founding of the 312th Squadron of the RAF will take part. Shortly afterwards, it was scrapped and exhibited at the gate of the airport in Planá.

Why is the belly of the plane only partially painted?
You have to ask about that the painters there.
I guess it could be a kind of the compromise between the art and camouflage.- Thread starter

Do you know what this eye on the plane means?

"Eye" don't know.
I have found the kind of marking painted on the MiG-23P (МиГ-23П) of the 415, 472, 28 IAP ( 415 ИАП, 472 ИАП, 28 ИАП ) and a few more. All the regiments were of the 2nd and 3rd Corps of the Moscow District PVO ( 2 Kорпус и 3 Kорпус Московского округа ПВО ).
Here the answer ...
More "eyes" ...
BTW ... for the same reason our Polish aircraft got the same kind of marking ...

The MiG-23M was made in 1976. It looks like she was sent to the Aviation Museum Khodynka, Moskva in 1989 but exhibited from 1991. In 2012 she was dismounted and moved/sent to the Vadim Zadorozhny Museum of Technology, Medyn (Медынь), Kaluga Region, Russia. In August 2014 she was put together and displayed in the Medyn museum.

So... Now I have questions. I found a photo of a plane with the tail number 55, on it you can see decals in the form of missiles
But the diagrams and drawings from the Internet differ from the photograph, because in the drawings of these rockets there are much more
I need to either find a photo of an aircraft with the same tail number and the same number of missile decals, or find out how many missiles are in the photo.
