In my country English is seen as the "international aviation language" so stencils are in English. Ages ago I saw the stencils on French and African aircraft were in French......

The paintwork is superb again

As far as I can say and according to technical drawings & model decals I inspirated from, some marking are in english/western letters and some are in japanese. No idea why
It won't be that visible, as the resolution 1024x1024 and the texture mapping doesn't allow these marking to be readable. However these small details add a lot to global texture details.
