The National Guard of Russia are equipped with weapons and military equipment of Soviet and Russian production.
Most members of Rosgvard wear ATACS variants by standard. During urban policing duties in cities within Russia, Rosgvard members wear either blue SURPAT or blue ATACS, both of which are printed on jackets or shirts.[1]
Before Rosgvard's uniform reformations, Rosgvard during urban policing used to wear blue variants of various Russian camouflages. Blue versions of Kukla (DPM) and Kamysh (Tigerstripe) were often optimized. During military exercises, parades, and combat deployments, Rosgvard uses more greener versions of the aforementioned camouflage patterns. The standard camouflages of Rosgvard are ATACS FG and ATAKA Moss (Russian domestic variant of ATACS). Certain Rosgvard units wears SURPAT on jackets occasionally. The Rosgvard uniform is either ATACS FG, ATACS Moss or SURPAT printed on a BDU shirt or jacket.[2]
The various units of the Rosgvard, before Rosgvard's uniform reformation, used various camouflage patterns such as Kukla (DPM), Amyoba (Amoeba), Berezka (KLMK), VSR, Flora, Kamysh, and so on.
Currently, the most commonly seen helmets within Rosgvard are the 6B7-1M and (visorless) ZSH. Alongside the aforementioned, Rosgvard also uses plenty of other helmets, such as 6B27, 6B28, and high-cut helmets.
