PATCHOLOGY: That's what the Russian wears

Today something completely different: not a funny highlight, but functional patches from another country. This that we see here is worn by the Russian troops.

This is the patch set that a paratrooper receives. The colorful set is for ceremonial duty at the base/parade, while the camouflaged set is for operational use. These are worn on the new Ratnik VKBO uniform. Notice the Russian coat of arms on the sleeve, in green in two patches. Two branch badges for the collar and the arm stripe for the right chest. Yes, the Russians like embroidery. HERE you can find both sets.

On the left chest comes a standardized blood type, left colorful and right Digital Flora.

The stylized Russian flag as a VKBO flag in different background colors adapted to the uniform (Black, Green, Coyote) is also available as a Rubber Patch. You can find general Russian patches HERE at the GREY SHOP.
