Regarding the SVD: Ive read that after WWII they assigned one soldier with a Dragunov to every russian squad.

Yeah, but I mean after WWII? 70 years have passed, I'll admit I don't know too much about the Russians and the weapons they use; but I would think they'd use a more modern rifle than the SVD. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

Conventional Russian forces continue to use the SVD.

little correction : not sphere , its a maska titanium helmet

looks pretty sweet!

for the new kit system though i think something along the lines of the BF Vietnam way would work well

Nice touch with Spetsnaz for Rifleman Specialist. But why do the grenadier and Anti-air have a different camouflage?

coz this is desert flora

Ahhh the new pics look even better! That specialist looks def. leet and I hope everyone will go specialist so I can own them with my scoped )

i dont like the spetsnatz guy in there tbh, its like old pr when we had spec ops guys(i wouldnt think its realistic either). i think a regular rifleman load out (kit model wise) with the bandanna (like the sniper) would be sweet to give him that more veteran feel. A lot of russian soldiers are seen with bandannas

Modern Russian helmet - Military Photos


I like the current helmet that is modeled (Page 3 on shows a ton in use and none seem to be standard)

[R-DEV]Nosferatu is our Military Adviser for the Russian Forces, if you have any specific questions regarding the kits he would be the man to ask.
If my job had been to pick the things that I thought were cool and give them to the Russians, it would have been a lot easier.
