Russian 6th Army 488th Regiment Skull Patch 8cm

This 8cm sleeve patch represents the Russian 6th Army, 488th Motor Rifle Regiment. The design features a skull in a beret with a combat knife clenched between its teeth, embroidered in white and black with an olive-green background. The top inscription reads “6 Армия,” and the bottom carries the number “488.”

The 6th Combined Arms Army is part of the Western Military District of the Russian Ground Forces. The 488th Motor Rifle Regiment has been identified as one of its active regiments, and units of this formation have participated in modern operations, including the war in Ukraine.

The skull-and-dagger imagery is typical of aggressive battlefield insignia worn by assault and motor rifle regiments, symbolizing readiness for close combat. Produced in subdued tones, the patch is suitable for use on combat uniforms, field jackets, and tactical gear.

This insignia is rarely available outside military circles and is considered a collectible example of modern Russian Ground Forces patches.
