Notes:

The MiG-15bisR was a reconnaissance variant of the fighter "bis". The modification made by LOM Praha consisted in removing part of the cannon armament and replacing it with cameras in the carriage under the cabin. The other two cameras were located under the fuselage fuel tank. Gun hangers for flash bombs were also installed under the wing for night shooting. One 23 mm cannon remained on the aircraft. The aircraft could be configured into four possible reconnaissance variants. To increase the range, the aircraft were modified and could carry larger additional tanks under the wings of PTB 600 instead of standard PTB 400. 76 aircraft were modified in this way.
