Russian smoke grenade we haven't seen?

That's an AP mine you blundering idiot

And gun that I can't figure out in the engineer and NCO kits.

That would be the PPS43, the successor of the PPSh41


(Sorry for the "blundering idiot" part, I just had to. No offence meant)

He meant the rifle, not the SMG, that's a Mosin Nagant carbine.

Hm, but what Faustnik will have as his secondary weapon?

It's a 1945 type kit layout. The at kit has PPS43 + Panzerfaust 30, but the icon isn't done yet. The engineer and NCO weapons is a Mosin Nagant M44 carbine, which was used at the end of the war.

I also have no idea what AT weapons the Russians fielded in WW2. There were the AT grenades and mines and of course the AT rifles. But other than a Lend Lease Bazooka or a captured faust, did the Russians have anything handheld and propelled?

[Ts4EVER]

Russians had no launchers themselves and only received very few bazookas. They captured lots of fausts though and even printed a manual for them, so that is what they get in 1945.

No idea, but you can see the pointy end of the stick made to stick it in the ground, the shrapnel sleeve and the detonator above which is supposedly able to be connected to a wire or an electrical detonator. Anyhow, not a smoke nade. Right devs? Where did you dig up this mine, I searched and found nothing.

The crap you guys find I swear to God is Taranov still doing research for the team?

[Turkish007]

Sweeeeeeeeet mama!  dem kits!

Ooooh, Mosin carbine, we havent seen it yet! 

[Godall]

As promised!
The NR-40 (from Russian: нож разведчика, nozh razvedchika, meaning 'scout's knife') was a Soviet combat knife introduced in 1940 and used throughout World War II. The NR-40 has a 152 mm blade with a clip point, a large choil, a black wooden handle, and an S-shaped guard. The guard is "inverted" (unlike most S-shaped guards, it curves towards the edge) because standard Soviet Army grips called for holding the knife with the edge towards yourself (most useful if you are, for example, trying to sneak up on a sentry from behind).

Congratulations to all on Victory Day!!!  Ура Ура Урааа!!!

[Matthew_Baker]

Oh very nice! nice normal map on that knife too.

The Russians are starting to shape up

[Ts4EVER]

Where did you find that? I can't see it in the 2.46 files.

[Flippy Warbear]

Made it?

[Ts4EVER]

No, we looked into it, it is the FH2 russian knife. Apparently it was included into the build by mistake back in 2.3. So congrats for digging that up. 

[Turkish007]

looks so nice! By the way, since when are Russian content being made? Except what the Finnish mod donated.
