According to this website, https://www.biancahoegel.de/flug/typen/ru/mig/mig-17f-ddr.html
NVA never used a single Lim-6bis, the photo you find is probably a Lim-5 (MiG-17F). That β€˜β€˜Mars-2’’ 16Γ—57mm S-5 rocket launcher may let you mistakenly believed those planes are Lim-6bis

In Detlef Billig, Manfred Meyer, Flugzeuge der DDR I. Band bis 1962 (2002) it is mentioned that some Lim-5P were converted to Lim-6bis standard, but without the breaking chute. So externally they would look similar to a Lim-5P and would probably still have the same tactical markings and so on.
