Russian/Soviet Шлем Маска Мало Габаритный (ШМГ)
The Russian/Soviet Шлем Маска Мало Габаритный (ШМГ) was the mask included with the Противогаз Мало Габаритный (ПМГ) kit. It featured small round eyepieces for use with optical devices, a central speech diaphragm, and its filter attached directly to the cheek. This example was made in Saratov in 1977.
