this is one of my friends TTSKO,maybe it is Russian TTSKO,I did not like TTSKO because it is very hard to see in old photo about Afgannistan war.

You are right! TTsKO generally is not a Afghanistan issued item. TTsKO made it into the hands of high ranking officers and flight crews late in the war 1988-89 mostly.

PS: That "lifchik" (chest rig) your friend has was not at all used in Afghanistan. It did see some use in the 1st Chechen War though.

Holy god,you know,that "lifchik" in China took me 100USD,but in many Afghanistan War photo,soviet spetsnaz GRU,VDV,they like using Chinese Type56 chest rig,this thing is very cheap in China,1-2USD,but I have seen the "lifchik" used by spetsnaz in a picture,I show you

That picture you showed me has been determined as having been taken after the Afghanistan war... Like I said that 2nd pattern Lifchik was not used. 1st pattern WAS used in late part of the war.

then I can only use 2nd pattern Lifchik in my Chechnya war cosplay. My 100USD

It very effective pattern (Бутан-84, Bhutan-84) worked out during a project Bhutan (1982 - 1984).

These vests were used both in Afghanistan and the 1st Chechen War
