Shoulder straps and ranks in the Russian army. Airborne uniform, history from the leather helmet to the blue beret Shoulder straps of an airborne lieutenant colonel

Since the founding of this type of troops, the uniform has been no different from clothing Air Force Red Army or special purpose air battalions. The set of clothes for a USSR intelligence soldier included:

When existing Soviet Union The Ukrainians were no different in their military uniforms from the Russian troops; there was only one template in effect throughout the entire USSR. After the collapse of the state, Ukraine had to “redraw” not only the meaning of the type of troops itself, but also the form of intelligence. Until recently, these two countries could only be distinguished by different stripes depicting coats of arms different countries. Ukraine on its uniform it depicts a trident on a yellow-blue background.

Outdated form samples

The paratroopers were given special uniforms immediately before the landing; later the uniform was replaced with a regular one, one might say, an office one, and cloth special forces were withdrawn. As soon as they were entered shoulder straps, began to wear aviation insignia. Blue colors were introduced for privates and sergeants shoulder straps with black edging, and the stripes are brick red. The dress uniform has always been distinguished by blue piping, caps- blue band. The same form was characteristic of the Ukrainian Airborne Forces at the time of being part of the USSR and military operations on one side.

New form of airborne forces in Russia

Now let’s travel through 2014 together with Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu. Not long ago he visited a legendary motorized rifle brigade, known since the Chechen war. In 2014, the soldiers of this unit were transferred to Ugra, and the new uniform acquired a new modern look, so now the military in such uniforms are not afraid of any frost. New cloth was tested by extremely low temperatures, piercing and cold winds.

Sergei Shoigu paid a visit to present awards, the action took place in an open area, and the military had to march in front of the highest leadership of Russia. At first, the form was delivered as an experimental one, but at the end of 2014 it was approved in 9 versions.

The new form for 2014 can be combined in different ways:

  • for cool weather it will be enough to wear a lined jacket,
  • for windy conditions it is recommended to wear a jacket under the jacket,
  • V rainy weather special forces can wear an underwear fleece shirt with a waterproof overall.

During the active learning phase or march Airborne troops walk around in their usual uniform. During theoretical classes, fighters wear lighter office attire.

Russia went through a number of changes in 2014: the ears on the earflap hat became longer, easily overlap at the back and are fastened with Velcro, this is quite important and comfortable for the chin. The hat has a top flap that can, if necessary, turn into a sun visor. Upper cloth has also undergone many changes, for example, the jacket can be disassembled into several elements. It has become a kind of construction set that can be transformed from an ordinary windbreaker to a warm pea coat.

The entire 2014 field uniform consists of 16 pieces that easily fit into backpack. Depending on the time of year backpack may be mild or severe. In new field shoes felt boots replaced with warm boots with inserts. Also added winter vest a paratrooper who does not restrict his movements. A warm scarf and a comfortable balaclava were added to the whole set. Reconnaissance overalls are made of waterproof material.

Dembel uniform

The uniform in which the paratrooper leaves for demobilization and there is a front door. It is quite different from the usual field clothing and, in general, from all other clothing of other troops. Reconnaissance, which has already completed its military service, can be seen from afar; one can really be proud of this form. It is considered the most beautiful and fashionable among all other military uniforms.

Reconnaissance on demobilization looks something like this: a brave, handsome man in a vest with blue stripes and a blue beret, a tunic with blue stripes, with a lot of all possible decorations.

On May 9 of this year, soldiers and officers of the Airborne Forces were presented in new field equipment; their dignified appearance once again emphasized how the leadership cares about the health and comfort of its soldiers. The preparation of real future reconnaissance must take place in a wide variety of climatic conditions, so clothing must always meet these basic requirements.

Every real paratrooper doesn't have many holidays. One of them is Airborne Forces Day. In every city, on a certain day, streams of young people in vests and blue berets flock to the main parks of the city. As you know, there are no former paratroopers. Having once put on a vest, any of them becomes a representative of this friendly brotherhood for life. Who are paratroopers? The main job of a paratrooper is to land at any time of the year and in any weather.

Since the founding of this type of troops, the uniform of the Airborne Forces was no different from the clothing of the Red Army Air Force or special purpose air battalions. The set of clothing of a USSR intelligence soldier included a leather or blue-gray canvas helmet. Moleskin overalls could be either leather or blue-gray canvas. The collar of the overalls was equipped with blue buttonholes, where insignia were sewn. Already in the forties, military uniforms

Clothing and equipment of airborne groups must meet basic requirements; it must not only be comfortable, but also ensure the accomplishment of assigned combat missions. First of all, the equipment should not hinder movement and ensure vital functions and meet all reliability parameters. The equipment of a paratrooper depends on the tasks facing him. The airborne troops are staffed with fighters of various types. Mainly in airborne units

On November 2, 1930, during an exercise in the Moscow Military District, twelve people were air-dropped as part of a special unit. It is this moment that is taken as the starting point of the history of our Airborne Forces. Throughout its existence, not only the status of the paratroopers changed more than once, but also their uniforms.

The uniform of our Airborne Forces received its current form relatively recently and has become a kind of business card one of the elite units of the Russian army.

First paratrooper uniform

Until the 40s of the last century, the uniform of the airborne detachment differed little from the uniform of the Red Army soldiers serving in the aviation troops. It consisted of a leather or canvas helmet with a soft lining and overalls made of moleskin or avisent. The blue buttonholes sewn to the collar of the overalls indicated that the detachment belonged to aviation.

The edging of the buttonhole indicated the official position of the serviceman: the command staff had a golden edging, while political workers, sergeants and privates wore uniforms with buttonholes with black edging, which was considered an everyday (or as it is now called - office) option. At the beginning of the Great Patriotic War, overalls were replaced by trousers with large patch pockets and a jacket.

The paratrooper's equipment in the pre-war years, in addition to the uniform, consisted of the following elements:

  1. Main parachute. Before the war of 1941 and for some time after its outbreak, airborne troops used the PD-6 parachute, which is essentially a licensed analogue of the American “Irvin”. Before establishing their own parachute production, the Soviet military performed jumps with American parachutes.
  2. A reserve parachute, or a line cutter.

The complete equipment of an Airborne Forces employee was:

  • two parachutes (main on the back, reserve in the lower abdomen);
  • duffel bag;
  • a machine gun with a magazine removed, which was attached vertically with the barrel down behind the left shoulder.

In winter, a large fur collar of dark blue, brown or khaki color was attached to the overalls using buttons or a zipper. When raised, the collar was tightened with internal straps. Often, the style of winter airborne uniforms directly depended on the manufacturer's factory.

After the failed Finnish campaign, the military personnel were dressed in padded jackets, short fur coats, felt boots, cotton trousers, and a hat with earflaps. At the same time, the winter version is equipped with a camouflage white robe with a hood.

Headgear of paratroopers

The headdress was another way to show the official affiliation of a soldier. For commanders after 1938, a dark blue cap was officially approved as a headdress.

After 1941, its color was changed to a protective green hue.

The upper part, rim and band of the cap were decorated with blue edging. She also wore a cockade with a red star surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves. During the parachute jump, the command staff used special caps, which were fastened under the chin with straps.

Ordinary paratroopers wore caps dark blue with blue edging and stars made of cloth, on top of which red stars were attached.


By the beginning of the war, the Airborne Forces had several standard clothing options, which depended on the time of year and official position:

Average command staffAverage command staff
Summer:over the everyday uniform there is a camouflage jumpsuit of reconnaissance military groups, a cap, chrome boots, a traffic police machine gun, and command equipment.Over the everyday uniform there is a camouflage jumpsuit, a cotton or cloth cap, tarpaulin boots, a rifle (after the fall of 1941 a PPSh assault rifle), and equipment.
Winter:over a casual uniform jacket with fur collar, equipment and weapons, earflaps and high boots.a white camouflage robe over an overcoat, weapons and equipment.

Since the helmet could fly off the paratrooper during a jump, this headgear was used exclusively during ground battles.

The evolution of the Airborne Forces headdress

The blue beret can easily be called the calling card of a modern paratrooper, but it only became part of the uniform after 1969. On June 30, 1967, the commander of the Airborne Forces, Colonel General V.S. Margelov. has been approved new sample form created according to the sketches of the artist A.B. Beetle.


The artist proposed two options for the appearance of Airborne Forces employees:

  • The daily uniform of the Airborne Forces included a khaki beret and a red star. This coloring of the headdress remained on paper.
  • The second option involved wearing a crimson beret, and it was this that was accepted.

The right side of the beret was decorated with a blue flag with the symbols of the Airborne Forces, the so-called “corner”, and on the front side of the beret there was a star surrounded by a wreath of ears.

For officers, a beret with a 1955 model cockade and a star with wings were provided.

During the military parade on November 7, 1967, paratroops marched across Red Square in crimson berets. And already in 1969, an order was issued that officially approved a new type of uniform for Airborne Forces employees with a blue beret.

The tradition of wearing a beret is different among paratroopers and airborne reconnaissance officers. The former wear the beret curved to the right, while the special forces of the air forces have an unspoken rule to bend the beret to the left.

The editors of the site hope that readers do not shy away from military service. You can read how you are punished for evading the army on this website.

The airborne troops were separated into a separate branch of the military only in 1991. Until this moment, paratroopers belonged to the ground forces, navy, and air force, and since 1946 they have been included in the reserve structure of the Supreme Commander and are directly subordinate to the supreme commander in chief.


In this regard, the color scheme of the uniform and insignia of the senior and junior command staff of the Airborne Forces were associated with the branch of the military to which they belonged at the moment.

In addition, the type of uniform of the Soviet paratrooper depended on the climatic conditions of the landing site and the position of the employee. It is customary to distinguish four groups of military clothing of the Soviet Airborne Forces:

  • casual summer uniform for sergeants and privates;
  • summer uniform for sergeants, privates and air force cadets;
  • casual summer set with shoulder straps and buttonholes for cadets;
  • winter version of the uniform with sleeve insignia for sergeants, military builders and airborne cadets.

At the beginning of the Great Patriotic War, the equipment of paratroopers included a dark blue overcoat; a little later its color was changed to a combined arms color. Also, the equipment of the airborne special forces included so-called camouflage robes: white for winter and protective spotted colors for summer. Exactly the same robes were worn by scouts and riflemen of the assault group.

During the special mission, the landing group was additionally equipped with special uniforms. This included overalls, helmet, high boots, and goggles.

After the introduction of shoulder straps, aviation insignia appeared. The famous emblem with a parachute and two planes on either side was introduced in 1955. It is this badge that today is a symbol of unity and brotherhood of employees in air forces.


In 1979, a limited contingent of troops was introduced into Afghanistan, including a special group of airborne forces. In view of the climatic conditions of the territory of presence, a special airborne force was developed. The prototype was the uniform of the army of the President of the Congo.

Features of the old-style Airborne Forces dress uniform

For special occasions, the air infantry was provided with a ceremonial set of uniforms, presented in summer and winter versions. In 1988, it underwent a number of changes.

Old style summer dress uniform:

  • cap with band;
  • untucked trousers;
  • open uniform;
  • White shirt;
  • black tie;
  • White gloves;
  • black low shoes or boots.

The ceremonial set of the summer uniform had a blue (sea) wave color.


The ceremonial winter uniform of an old-style Airborne Forces soldier:

  • hat with ear flaps, lieutenant colonels have a hat;
  • gray overcoat;
  • open uniform;
  • blue trousers untucked;
  • White shirt;
  • black tie;
  • white muffler;
  • brown gloves;
  • black boots.

Since 1967, the beret has become part of the ceremonial set of clothing, replacing the cap.

Distinctive features of the field uniform

Soviet paratroopers had two options for clothing for field conditions: summer and winter. The summer field uniform set included:

  • cap;
  • jacket and trousers in khaki colors;
  • vest;
  • boots or high boots.

Description of the winter uniform of the Airborne Forces:

  • hats with earflaps;
  • khaki jacket and pants;
  • gray muffler;
  • brown gloves;
  • berets or boots.

The entry of Soviet troops into Afghanistan required the leadership to reconsider the equipment of employees. The classic field uniform is being replaced by a lighter version, popularly called Mabuta after the colonel of the Congolese army. It was made of raincoat fabric with water-repellent impregnation, ventilation system and more comfortable fit.


The sand uniform consisted of trousers, a jacket and a cap and was used during combat missions in regions with a hot climate.

What do modern paratroopers wear?

The shape of the new airborne forces is based on the principle of multi-layering. Depending on weather conditions, military personnel are allowed to combine clothing:

  • the modern uniform of the Russian Airborne Forces includes several combinations and sets of diverse clothing;
  • in the cool season, soldiers are provided with an additional lined jacket;
  • often military personnel from the special forces of the Airborne Forces are allowed to wear a jacket under their jacket;
  • in rainy, damp weather, the uniform consists of an underwear fleece shirt and overalls with waterproof impregnation.

Thus, what uniform the airborne soldiers will have in a particular case is decided independently by the unit commander, taking into account weather conditions.

A modern hat with earflaps has elongated ears, making it easy to overlap and fastened with Velcro, protecting the chin.

Additionally, the hat is equipped with a top flap, allowing it to turn inside out and transform into a visor. Felt boots were replaced with warm boots with thermal inserts. The outer jacket is a designer one and can easily be transformed from a windbreaker into a warm peacoat.


The new uniform set of the Russian Airborne Forces uniform for soldiers and field officers includes 19 items:

  • several jackets;
  • insulated vest;
  • costume;
  • three types of boots (summer, demi-season and winter);
  • balaclava;
  • mittens and gloves.

The summer uniform of the airborne special forces includes:

  • underwear (T-shirt and boxer shorts);
  • light jacket;
  • trousers;
  • cap (beret);
  • summer boots.

To sew a lightweight version of the airborne uniform, a mechanical stretch treated with a water-repellent compound is used.

Winter uniform for the Airborne Forces option includes:

  • two sets of insulated underwear (lightweight and fleece);
  • demi-season suit;
  • windproof suit;
  • insulated vest;
  • boots;
  • balaclava.

In winter, it is allowed to wear a blue sweater under a jacket that is part of the uniform.

The winter uniform of an officer and warrant officer of the Airborne Forces allows wearing black fur hat and a black jacket.

For hot climates, a separate set of uniforms for airborne troops was developed. The new uniform of airborne troops has a light brown or sandy color.

The first option consists of a shirt with short sleeve and a turn-down collar, shoulder straps, trousers and boots in a basic color. The headgear used is a soft cap similar to a baseball cap with a hard visor and a field cockade.


Shorts are allowed instead of trousers. Insignia on this type of uniform are placed similarly to everyday uniforms. This clothing option does not include award stripes. The second option consists of an elongated jacket with shoulder straps, trousers tucked into ankle boots. On the head is a cap or Panama hat that matches the statutory uniform.

Casual or office workwear for the air infantry is similar to the uniform of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, only in blue.

The field uniform of an officer is exactly the same as that of the enlisted personnel of the Airborne Forces, only the dress clothes are different.

The ceremonial set of the Airborne Forces uniform consists of a blue jacket and trousers, a vest, a blue beret, aiguillette, white gloves and ankle boots.

Officer ceremonial uniform:

  • blue jacket;
  • untucked blue trousers;
  • shirt;
  • black tie;
  • White gloves;
  • black boots;
  • gold aiguillette;
  • blue cap with cockade.

The winter dress uniform of midshipmen and airborne officers includes a black jacket, a woolen cap or blue beret, a vest and combat boots. For enlisted personnel and cadets:

  • gray hats with earflaps;
  • demi-season blue jacket;
  • costume;
  • vest;
  • beret.

Airborne special forces take part in the parade in field uniform. Not only shoulder straps, but also chest and sleeve stripes and chevrons are used as insignia.
Before the collapse of the Soviet Union, the uniform was identical for all Airborne Forces employees, regardless of the republic.


Today, each country that was part of the USSR has its own version of the uniform. In the Russian Federation, the main ceremonial color of the Airborne Forces uniform is blue.

For example, not so long ago, the uniform of the highly mobile Ukrainian Airborne Forces was completely changed, in particular, the blue beret was removed from the military personnel’s clothing, replacing it with a similar purple-colored headdress. The main reason for this transformation is that in Russia the blue beret is an integral part of the Airborne Forces uniform.


In turn, in the Republic of Belarus the uniform of the special forces of the airborne special forces still includes a blue beret, as in Russia.

Clothing option for women

Despite the fact that there have been girls in the ranks of paratroopers before, until recently, service in the Airborne Forces was the privilege of men. So in 2008-2009 “Ryazan Higher Airborne School named after. Margelov” was recruiting girls to master the profession of a paratrooper officer. Six years later educational institution repeated the experience.

Combat female uniform The airborne forces are exactly the same as those of men:

  • several jackets;
  • costume;
  • three boot options;
  • mittens and gloves;
  • balaclava;
  • insulated vest.

Women's parade airborne uniform:

  • blue jacket;
  • blue skirt;
  • White gloves;
  • white muffler;
  • black boots.

What is a birch pattern

Camouflage is a mandatory part of the equipment of the military and, in particular, the reconnaissance troops of the Airborne Forces. The range of camouflage suits is wide, which allows you to choose the ideal camouflage for any climatic and weather conditions. Despite this, the leader of camouflage clothing until recently was the birch (official name KZM-P).


Initially, camouflage with a birch tree pattern was developed for border troops; later it was liked by airborne reconnaissance officers.

A camouflage suit with a birch pattern was created in 1957 and was used as part of the summer equipment of border guards and paratroopers. This camouflage ideally hid the fighter in deciduous forests and swampy areas. Due to its special pixel pattern, KZM-P is capable of dispersing the silhouette of a person at short and long distances.

The raster pattern of the birch camouflage suit resembles spots with jagged edges. Large and small patterns create an optical illusion of a melting silhouette. The light and dark colors of the camouflage coat suggest its use during the day and at night.

Ghillie suits with a birch pattern are presented in the form of a camouflage suit with voluminous hood, overalls and jacket with pants.

Although today the birch camouflage is not a statutory uniform, it is still popular, not only among the military, but also among civilians.

What kind of demobilization uniform do paratroopers have?

The tradition of sewing a demobilization outfit comes from the Soviet Union, when military service was considered honorable. DMB is a kind of confirmation that the soldier served well and is proud of his army uniform. What can we say about the guys who paid their debt to the Motherland in the ranks of the Airborne Forces.

And although in the early 90s they preferred to go into the reserves for demobilization civilian clothes, today military personnel have returned to this beautiful custom.


The demobilization uniform of an Airborne Forces soldier is prepared on the basis of a field uniform using several rules:

  • the suit should not be pretentious or overly elegant;
  • placement of insignia and external chevrons is carried out in accordance with the statutory rules.

For the layout of the suit, an acanthus tunic or “gorka” can be used, which is often chosen by airborne special forces, trousers, a vest and combat boots. A mandatory attribute of the finished outfit is a blue beret.

Today it is not at all necessary to sew a demobilization suit yourself, since online stores offer ready-made options.

It is an honor to serve in the airborne forces and many guys would like to be in the ranks of the blue berets. But this honor is not granted to everyone, which does not prevent civilians from trying on the paratrooper uniform.

Today there are not only adult, but also children's airborne uniforms on sale. Why do civilians wear military uniforms at events dedicated to the celebration of victory and other celebrations? Everyone has their own reasons for this. For example, children's military uniforms of the Airborne Forces are popular during the celebration of Victory Day.

On the other hand, as boxer Denis Lebedev explained, this shows respect for the paratroopers. It's hard to disagree with the athlete; they really deserve respect.
