Yup . Sometimes it was called Fagot-B (NATO). The 15 and 15bis biggest difference was engine—rather hard to spot on the first sight .

This particular aircraft caries fictional tactical number, and AFAIK is in fact S-103 (MiG 15bis produced in Czechoslovakia). Its serial number is 623794.

The funny thing is that engine that powered MiG-15 was “borrowed” by USSR from Britain . Nice…

Yea… this number seemed a bit odd to me (4 digits), so I did some research to find this out myself
