In 2015, the Russian army completely changed its clothes. Today, all military personnel without exception have a new model military uniform. The plan of the Ministry of Defense of the Ministry of Defense, which consisted in completely re-dressing the army in more than a year, was completely fulfilled. This was repeatedly stated by senior officials of the main military department. The need to redress the ranks of our country's army has existed for quite some time. Along with the new set of uniforms, new rules for wearing them have also been introduced.

In 2014 alone, the new uniform was issued to half a million military personnel. The distribution of uniforms was carried out in accordance with the developed schedule. The transfer of military personnel began precisely with those who served in the Far North.

General redressing began in 2013 and continued actively in 2014, but the bulk of Russian military personnel were issued updated military uniforms in 2015. Now the naval and ceremonial military uniforms are next in line for revision. Male and female employees will be completely re-dressed. In part, the 2015 Russian Armed Forces uniform pattern reflects the trend in US military clothing.

Reforms in the field of military uniforms under Serdyukov

Modern military uniforms were required for military personnel Russian army quite a long time ago, and the current attempt to completely change the clothes of military personnel is not the first. Overseas clothing for military personnel is significantly superior in performance to the uniform of our country's military. From time to time, the Ministry of Defense introduces samples of military clothing with more advanced characteristics. As a result of each such attempt, the country's budget loses huge sums, and a dress uniform is an even more unjustified expense.

For example, under the disgraced minister Anatoly Serdyukov, about 25 billion rubles were allocated for dressing up the Russian army. Development and implementation price new form in 2014-2015 is still kept secret, but given the scale of this process, we can say with confidence that the amounts involved are cosmic.

The military uniform has been reviewed by the Ministry of Defense since 2007, including the dress uniform. The main initiative came from the then Minister of Defense A. Serdyukov. On a competitive basis, from the sketches provided by the selected developers, the option proposed by the famous Russian fashion designer Valentin Yudashkin won. It took 2 years to prepare the final samples of the updated uniform. The presentation of the new form was held in 2010. In many respects, both external and operational, it was similar to the uniform of members of the US armed forces. But the developers did their best to disown such a comparison.

The Russian uniform for the winter season caused many unflattering responses from both specialists and the military personnel themselves, who had to test the new uniform on themselves. The Ministry of Defense received complaints almost daily. Due to the low performance characteristics of the new uniform, the number of colds in the army increased sharply in just one winter period. In addition, external signs of the new form also caused dissatisfaction. After all, now the shoulder straps were not located in their usual place, on the shoulders, but, following the example of the armed formations of the NATO bloc, were moved to the chest area. Plus, the quality of the material from which the form was made also left much to be desired. The servicemen noted that the fabric quickly deteriorates and breaks, and the threads fray and also become unusable.

Among other innovations, it should be noted the presence of a warm sweater in the clothing kit of an officer of the Russian army, and the presence of individual components with Velcro, a narrower model of overcoats, and the complete abolition of foot wraps and boots. By the way, the last abolition was valid only according to documents, because in fact, it was not possible to achieve this in the entire Russian army immediately.

Due to numerous complaints and dissatisfaction from military personnel, the military department began to think about the advisability of developing a new uniform.

Now we understand that model based on the example of the US military uniform not suitable for the conditions of our country. From now on, military uniforms used in the field included 19 items. It turns out that the set has been significantly expanded. The price of one such set is approximately 35,000 rubles. The ceremonial military uniform has not yet undergone changes, because there is no urgent need for this. It was the field uniform that was much more important, not the dress uniform.

Set of modern uniforms for military personnel

A modern uniform set is a multi-layer suit. Depending on weather conditions and personal tastes, military personnel have the opportunity to personally select sets of clothing for themselves. Plus, from now on the field uniform is identical for both the officer and the rank and file. Dress uniforms will continue to vary. The standards for using military clothing for an officer and a soldier do not differ (one exception is the officer's dress uniform).

The modern field kit for soldiers and officers includes the following components:

Gloves and mittens;

Several types of jackets designed for each season;

Hat and beret;

3 types of boots, varying by season;

Balaclava.

Standards for wearing uniforms for military personnel

Such rules are established in some detail in departmental regulations of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

Employees use military uniforms of the following types:

dress uniform- during parades and various events with the direct participation of troops; V holidays military unit; in cases of presentation of state awards and orders; in cases of presentation of the Battle Banner to a military unit; when the ship is launched and put into operation, as well as when the Naval Banner is raised on the ship; when enlisted in the honor guard; when serving as sentries guarding the Battle Banner of a military unit. It is permitted to wear this type of clothing on non-working days and during off-duty periods;

field uniform- in the presence of hostilities; during a state of emergency, liquidation of the consequences of accidents, natural disasters, catastrophes, natural and other disasters; at educational events, training sessions, combat duty;

everyday- in all other cases.

Characteristics of linen for military personnel

The uniform requires 2 separate sets for use in air temperatures ranging from - 40 to +15 degrees, and from + 15 and above. In one set, the underwear consists of a short-sleeved T-shirt and boxer shorts. Such underwear is extremely practical, both technically and external signs. For a soldier, it has all the required qualities, namely:

dries quite quickly after absorbing moisture;

the degree of air exchange meets mandatory standards.

For low temperature conditions there are 2 sets of underwear: lightweight and fleece. Such underwear can be worn directly on the body. It also happens that a fleece set is worn over a lightweight one. This is usually done under lower temperature conditions. Lightweight underwear differs from the standard summer set in that it has longer sleeves and underpants that span the entire length of the legs. The fleece set has a fleecy surface on the inside, plus there is also an insulating layer.

Sets for different weather conditions

The summer field set consists of a lightweight jacket, trousers, beret and light boots. In the manufacture of such clothing, the so-called mechanical stretch is used, which is initially subject to treatment with a special water-repellent compound. In the parts that bear the greatest load, reinforcing components are applied. This makes the suit resistant to mechanical damage, and the degree of wear is minimized.

Standards for the use of military clothing allow in cool weather conditions to use a fleece jacket with thick pile on both sides. There is a durable layer of thermal insulation here. Plus, if necessary, the jacket can be folded into a minimum volume. A windbreaker jacket is used for protection from the winds. It is worn with layer 5 trousers. The windbreaker provides ventilation and the necessary air exchange.

For colder weather conditions the main set is demi-season. It provides excellent protection from winds. The material from which the suit is made has sufficient vapor permeability and dries quickly. This suit is also worn by employees in the US Army. For special field conditions, military personnel can use a windproof suit. During heavy downpours, such a suit protects against moisture for a long time. A similar effect is achieved due to the presence of a special membrane. The seams of the suit are taped for greater reliability.

In severe frosts a more insulated suit and an insulated vest are used. These elements are practical and lightweight. They are made from wind and waterproof materials. Plus, in frosty weather you can use a balaclava, which can be worn as a hat, and an insulated hat for very frosty weather. To make uniforms for the Russian army, a material is used that contains cotton and synthetic elements in a ratio of 65/35.

Stars of Heroes of Russia, Orders of Courage, medals “For Courage” - in the St. George Hall of the Kremlin, Vladimir Putin presented state awards to military personnel who distinguished themselves during the operation in Syria. In total, more than 48 thousand soldiers and officers took part in it.

As the president noted, they made a decisive contribution to the defeat of terrorists in the Arab Republic, and the whole world saw the power and efficiency of our army.

Generals and sergeants, sailors and pilots, military advisers. Most recently, all of them carried out combat missions in the Syrian Arab Republic, and today the heroes are honored in the Kremlin.

In the St. George's Hall, which since the 19th century has been considered the hall of glory of the victorious Russian army, there are more than 600 people. The Supreme Commander-in-Chief thanks the military for their professionalism. Vladimir Putin proposes to honor the memory of those killed during the anti-terrorist operation in Syria with a minute of silence.

“People followed daily events as if they were reports, believed in you, were proud of your successes, of our Armed Forces, sincerely, with pain, as if they were their own, they experienced every irreparable loss. We will always remember our comrades who died while performing combat missions. They died defending Russia, their names will forever be recorded in the lists of the units in which they served. The younger generation of officers and soldiers will be educated on their exploits. The families, parents, children, relatives and friends of everyone we have lost will always be surrounded by our care and support. We will do everything for this. I ask you to honor the memory of the fallen,” said Vladimir Putin.

Putin emphasizes: Russia made a decisive contribution to the defeat of terrorists in Syria. More than 30 thousand combat sorties, 166 strikes with high-precision missiles. A real triumph of Russian weapons. Now the troops have been withdrawn, leaving only two bases in Tartus and Khmeimim. An agreement has been concluded with Syria to lease these bases for 49 years. This is extremely important for the fight against terrorism.

“You know that yesterday a terrorist attack was committed in St. Petersburg, and just recently the Federal Security Service stopped another attempted terrorist attack. What would happen if these hundreds, thousands, which I just mentioned, returned to us, returned trained, armed, well prepared? By the way, yesterday I gave instructions to the director Federal service security when working with these bandits, when detaining them, act, of course, only within the framework of the law, but when there is a threat to the life and health of our employees and our officers, act decisively, do not take anyone prisoner, eliminate the bandits on the spot,” said Vladimir Putin.

Among those awarded is Rustam Muradov. We met with him before the ceremony began. The major general was a military adviser in Syria for about a year. Sometimes I did without a translator. I myself learned a few words in Arabic, and many Syrian officers know Russian quite well.

"I was nominated for the title of Hero for successful completion operations in the Der ez-Zor direction. It was quite hot there. The fact is that the militants felt quite confident there, and they created a powerful system of defensive structures; the Russian Aerospace Forces proved themselves to be excellent. Russian spirit, Russian weapons in fact, in these most difficult conditions it showed its best side,” said Major General, Commander of the Combined Arms Army of the Central Military District Muradov Rustam.

Sergeant Anton Kiryushin received the Zhukov medal. 80 days in Syria as commander of a section of an engineering brigade.

“The tasks were to destroy and neutralize explosive substances and objects. They were taken out in special boxes with sand, on a sand cushion. Every day, 3-4 trips are made accordingly,” said sergeant, commander of the engineer-sapper squad of the engineering barriers platoon of the engineer-sapper brigade Anton Kiryushin.

The unit commander signed the report and issued an order for the appropriate payment, an extract from which was delivered to the Financial Support Department.

    Same situation (only I lost one).

    The response from the military registration and enlistment office where you formalized your dismissal... they said that if they didn’t write a paper on you and didn’t submit it to the Office “On Rewarding”... then we can’t help you with anything.

    If your leadership submitted such papers, BUT they did not issue them to you (for example, they did not have time or a unit was relocated), then you can get it at the military registration and enlistment office. Accordingly, you will have to wait and go through some procedure (apparently run...).

    To question number 14.

    From the name of the medal it is clear that it is awarded to military personnel “for EXCELLENCE in military service.” Your superior command submits a petition (report) to submit documents for awarding a departmental medal, indicating the PERSONAL merits of the serviceman.

    It is clear from your complaint that you have not gone to work for 10 years and have not performed the duties of a military serviceman. Sorry, but why are you being awarded a medal? I wouldn’t even count your length of service.

    Good afternoon. I wanted to clarify this question: I was fired in 2004 due to the OSH. At the time of exclusion from the unit lists in August, the length of service was 15 years and 1 month. Accordingly, they did not submit documents for a 2nd degree medal. Do I have the right to resume the award procedure through the military registration and enlistment office?

    Good evening. The question is similar: length of service in the Defense Ministry is 10 years and 3 months. Dismissed at the end of the contract. I haven’t prepared an application for the 3rd degree, is there still a chance to get it and how to do it if I live on the other side of the country in comparison with the PPD.
