Bort number

Bort numbers are markings usually found on the side of the fuselage of Soviet (and later Russian) military aircraft that help identify the aircraft's unit and/or base assignment. In Russian use, the bort number is analogous to the United States' military tail code system and does not provide unique aircraft identification.
