OK. I couldn't find any other images of the "White 55" ... I would say there is the 22 rockets and 165 / 164 bombs.

Why was the bottom of the MiG-23 painted in two colors?For the Polish MiG 23 ...
1. Dark Green - FS 34052
2. Olive Green - FS 34097
3. Olive Drab - FS 34087 other sources claim here the FS 33303
4. Light Sky Blue or Dark Blue Grey for undersides FS 35622 or 35450, 35466.
The German one ... however the one seen in the pic seems to be repainted in the museum so these colours may be slightly incorrect in their tinges and look like the ones used by the Polish Air Force.

Correct Russian text: "Осторожно, соты! Не становиться!" - small differences are crucial in this case."Осторожно соты! Не становится?"
I am currently translating technical inscriptions on the MiG-23 from Russian into Polish. I have a question. How do you say "Осторожно соты! Не становится?" in Polish?
How I understood the first word "Uwaga"
Wurger. I am currently translating technical inscriptions from Russian into Polish. Do you by any chance have any photos of the Polish Air Force MiG-23 with technical inscriptions?Hi Stanislav,
The "Uwaga" in Russian is "Внимание !". So it is a warning.
"Осторожно соты! Не становится?" in Polish should be "Uwaga ! Nie stawać." Also it could be "Ostrożnie ! Nie stawać". But as memo serves the "X" and "Nie Stawać !" was applied on the Polish MiG-23 at all the places where the standing on was forbidden.

I am guided by the photographs of the MiG-23MF from the Langerford Museum in Denmark.

Okay. I'm currently translating and analyzing this fragment.
