Arrow Russian Goggles and / or Sunglasses

Hello all,

Does anyone of you know whether the Russians (at present) use goggles / sunglasses, like the Americans and others do*?

If they do, do you know of any website from where one can purchase the Russian goggles and / or the sunglasses from?

Thanks! :-)

*If I'm not mistaken, the Americans use something like these:


Above: Sunglasses
Below: Goggles

These are Hatch Boss goggles. I have no idea why would anyone want to use those things. I have a pair, they fog up 2-3 minutes into the game.



These are actual soviet dust goggles, or maybe pilot goggles.

They offer no ballistic protection, but someone from Red Alliance replaced regular lenses with ballistic ones so they can be used for airsoft.

Thanks for your input, 666.

Now let me ask you something else: Are the Hatch Boss Goggles actually USED by the Russian Army? If yes, are they reserved for the Spetsnaz (Commandos + Special Forces) only?

Also, what about sunglasses please?

Thanks again!

Back home most people wear so called "uniform #8", that means whatever they can find. If people can get Hatch, I guess they will use it. They might have issue dust goggles, but I'm yet to see those on pics or in the movies.

Russian regular army and Special Forces uses no special googles. Only our best unit (like "Alfa") have it. And it is not a russian-made googles. So in Russian army we can use UVEX googles like old-fashion dust-googles.

And Hello from Ufa, Russia!
