Simple repaint, they left them in the original US camouflage and put Russian markings on them.
My understanding is the Fighter Factory purchased a few of these from overseas. Here is a 1:1 with Russian markings. I don't know if the markings are correct, but the plane looks good! (Even without the engine installed).
