The military form of the Russian army: photos, views

The qualitative form of the fighter is a guarantee of his fighting efficiency, confidence and pride for the country. Do you think the military form of the Russian army meets the stated requirements? Or does it leave much to be desired? Let's understand together. But first of all, you and I need to consider the military form of the Russian army by the kinds of troops.

It should be noted that the new form of the Russian army appeared in 2015. Today, every soldier has it. However, special rules for her socks have been created for the new form. You will learn all this later in this article.

The main types of uniform for a serviceman

There are several types of military form of the Russian army. It is divided into three types:

• Field - it is worn by servicemen during exercises, service, combat operations, and also during the provision of assistance to civilians in case of emergency or natural disasters.
• The military uniform of the Russian army is worn by the military during various festivals and ceremonies (including parades), as well as to receive awards at the ceremonies of delivery.
• Office - this type of military uniform is worn in any other cases that do not belong to the first two species.

So, we have got acquainted with the views in the military uniform of the Russian army. And now we turn to the consideration of the global reform, thanks to which the external appearance of the military forces has changed.

The team of Anatoly Serdyukov and Valentin Yudashkin

Unfortunately, in the history of Russia there were several unsuccessful experiments on changing the form of servicemen. While the budget of the Russian Federation was wasted on reforming dressing, the appearance of the military forces of the United States of America was only improving. The kits became more convenient, their performance characteristics improved, and successful tests of innovative materials were carried out.

But it's time to change and the military uniform of the Russian army, the photo of which you see below. The origin of this idea was in 2007. At that time Anatoly Serdyukov occupied the post of Minister of Defense. By his order in the country organized a large-scale competition, the commission considered a variety of sketches. It should be noted that more than 1000 designers from all corners of Russia participated in this event.

As you may have guessed, the commission chose as its winner sketches and sketches of the domestic designer Valentin Yudashkin.

Years of development

For two years, experts and fashion designers Valentin Yudashkin team were engaged in the development of the final version of the modern military form of the Russian army. Ironically, the final result of the activities of designers and designers was similar to the American form of soldiers, but the project participants did not agree with this opinion, although a huge number of facts did not testify in their favor.

In the epicenter of criticism was the winter military uniform of the Russian army. The thing is that this type of clothing did not protect the fighters from the cold, so the Ministry of Defense received letters every day complaining that a winter set of clothes for servicemen is not suitable in the cold season. As a result, outbreaks of colds began in the northern regions of Russia in military units.

But that's not all. Criticism underwent stylistic decisions, which, as it turned out, were copied from sets of military clothing of other states.

Most of all the military was distressed by the threads and fabrics of which the clothes were made. The new form quickly worn out and fell into disrepair.

The set of the military uniform of the Russian army consisted of 19 elements, and its cost price was approximately 35 000 rubles!

The fashion designer's response to "uniform disgrace"

In view of the fact that the project failed again, the Russian society began to blame this time fashion designer Valentin Yudashkin. In 2012, he held a press conference, where he told reporters that the military form introduced into operation differs markedly from his models. To reduce the cost of the mold, the materials chosen by the designer were replaced by cheaper ones.

Journalists came to a common opinion that only appearance remained from Yudashkin's form.

As a result, the Ministry of Defense revised the view on the new form, corrected shortcomings and shortcomings. And now we will consider what the soldier of the Russian army wears today.

The modern parade set

For many years this form did not change. Its appearance meets all the requirements of modern times and at the same time pays tribute to the history of the centuries-old state. Only some elements of uniforms were changed. Consider what the summer dress form consists of:

• Woolen cap with band;
• Dress uniform with epaulettes and buttonholes;
• Trousers, ceremonial, week-end wool trousers of the 2010 model;
• Witz-curtain of special cloth;
• White shirt;
• belt;
• A black tie on which must be present a brass fastener;
• Shoes or black chrome boots;
• White gloves.

We pass to the components of the winter parade uniform:

• A hat with a fur hat, decorated with gray fur;
• Front exit coat and uniform;
• Vitsmundir;
• pants;
• White shirt, black tie, gloves and belt with requirements for both summer uniforms;
• Black boots or demi-season low shoes.

Modern everyday kit

As you may have guessed, the color of the outfit will depend on the membership of the army and the rank. Generals and officers wear an everyday olive-colored uniform. The air forces wear blue uniforms. The headgear, that is, the cap, is the same color as the equipment. Still decorative elements on the cap have a golden color. Winter men's hats did not change.

Representatives of the fair sex in the military uniform of the Russian army now feel more feminine. Dresses and skirts, which they wear, fit the figure, slightly emphasizing the shapes. The female form has the same colors - olive or blue. In the cold season, ladies wear a short coat. Their head is decorated with astrakhan beret, and in summer - an ordinary cap.

Servicemen in the rank of soldier, cadet or sergeant do not have a daily form. In winter and summer they wear field outfits. In the cold season, they are warmed by a coat of gray color, with the exception of the military and airborne troops - for them a blue uniform is sewn.

In the spring and autumn period, demi-season jackets are marked for soldiers. In summer, in bad weather, an elongated raincoat is issued, which does not allow moisture to pass through.

Modern office suite

This type of clothing is considered a form of everyday form. It is worn by generals, officers and employees of the Ministry of Defense. The kit includes: a cap, a shirt of the same color, a white T-shirt and monochrome trousers of the color of the headdress.

In the winter season, the military wears a warm jacket, to which a hood is attached, the head warms the hat with ear-flaps.

Every year the form of the office view undergoes slight changes. It is strictly forbidden to wear such clothes in the field.

Care for the military uniform of the Russian army

We have examined all types of uniforms, now, as promised, we will tell you how to take care of such uniforms.

It's not a secret for anyone that the outfit should always be clean and tidy! Therefore, we suggest that you learn some subtleties in the care of products.

First, before you begin to erase a suit, be sure to read the information on the label.

Secondly, clothes made from wool are best washed with slightly warm water. If you want to charge this business with a washing machine, then choose the most gentle mode without pressing! As a rule, the machine has a program for washing delicate laundry, and it will do. Please note that it is prohibited to wring out items made of wool. Otherwise you will receive a form 2-3 sizes smaller.

Everyday form is less capricious. It can safely be entrusted to the washing machine and the simplest laundry detergent. The temperature regime can be any.

If you find a spot on the dress uniform, then its elimination at home can go not for the benefit of things. Therefore, entrust this process to dry cleaners.
