Does anyone know if the Russians used any other markings on their KFOR vehicles apart from the KFOR marking? I have a photo of a AFV that I'd like to model in the future but the angle only shows the KFOR written on the front and doesn't show if there's anything marked up on the sides?

All my other reference material covers Chechnya and Ossetia and doesn't show forces in Kosovo.

Hello again Jon

This Russian BTR-80 in Kosovo has KFOR markings on the front and the side as well along with a number (512 ?) :


Another one near Pristina Airport, side by side with British vehicles :

Thanks H.P!

Actually the top photo is the same vehicle I saw but with a different angle that shows the side as well. Great photos and very useful!

Did the Russian forces in Kosovo apply the same camo scheme to all their AFV's in KFOR?

It seems they didn't. Here's a 3-tone camo (with a cyrillic-looking "K" ) :



Another one :
