Purpose behind Russian AF plane number colors?


Recommended Posts

Hi 

Having pondered about this for ages, could anyone enlighten me on the background for the different colors on the numbers of Russian fighters and transports? 
Never understood why some are red, others blue, yellor or white for that matter? 

Is this related to squadron-like assignment on the allocated base? 

 

Thanks

I've never seen 3-digit bort numbers other on air show display aircraft. What about the colors? Any difference between red, blue, yellow and white?
