I. History

 

From 1973 the MiG-17F was used as fighterbomber by the east german air force LSK. From this time the planes got a camo.
There was no standard for the form of staines, dots or stripes. So the technicians of the squadrons and repair facilities had free hand for the paintshop.
Originally it was intended to have a two tone camo. The colors had to be brown and green. But the tone of the paint was not specified, so that lighter and darker greens and browns were possible.
It depended a lot on the availability of the paint. On the other hand the brown paint was very fast weathering, so that it appeared soon as a green tone.
Nobody knows why the paint changed from brown to green. It simply happend. Perhaps it had something to do with the sun?
So a very wide range of colors was to find on the planes.

 

This package contains 100 different camos, connected with the tactical numbers, so that you will find 100 planes each with an other unique camo.
The camos are east german style. They are not historical correct.
