After the coup by Gen. Lon Nol, the renamed AVNK replaced the old markings with new ones, used until the collapse of Nol's regime, in 1975. Note that the old marking was relatively crudely overpainted by Pale Grey (as used by the USAF), and a new marking applied instead. Some pictorial evidence suggest that the markings on the upper sides of the wings were only removed - not replaced- , so i've added 3 versions: a blank one, a full marked one, and one without wing markings. 8022 was one of several Cambodian MiG-17Fs that survived long enough to be modified for carriage of the US-made Mk.82 bombs: these were mounted directly under the wing - instead of the pylon for carriage of drop tanks!
