    Howde all,
    I've always liked military insignia and badges, and a few years ago, while in Minsk, picked up a few nice Soviet ones.

    I have one for long duration submarine services, another for an Su-33 squadron on the now defunct Kiev.

    But this one, I'm not so sure of. I think it may be an air force long range interceptor squadron, but can't be certain.

    Can anyone shed any light on it or translate?

    Cheers,

    LD

    Not a squadron insignia. The 'Glory to...' range were sold to civilians citizens so they could show their appreciation for the heroic comrades in the various services. Lots of different designs around.

    Cheers all.

    That makes it a bit more interesting, to be honest.
