Original Item – Only One Available. This two-piece commemorative set marks the 50th anniversary of the 26th Center for Special Communications of the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB), a unit whose history is tied to Soviet and Russian signals-intelligence and secure-communications operations in Cuba. The larger piece is a classic Chekist-pattern shield-and-sword badge, the upright sword bisecting an oval shield being the enduring emblem of Soviet and Russian state security since Dzerzhinsky's era. Across the shield's banners read Federal Security Service, framed by the dates 1975 and 2025 and surmounted by the gilt double-headed eagle of the Russian Federation. The crossed Cuban and Russian national flags, the mountain range, and the parabolic antenna beneath the bold "50" speak directly to the unit's communications and intercept mission on the island.
For the collector of Cold War and post-Soviet intelligence material, sets like this sit at a fascinating intersection, Russian state-security iconography married to the Cuban connection that defined one of the most significant foreign SIGINT footprints of the late twentieth century. Anniversary issues commemorating specialized FSB directorates rarely surface in matched badge-and-pin pairs, and the dual-language, dual-flag design makes this a distinctive display piece for any Soviet/Russian or Cuban militaria collection. Presented here as a complete two-piece set in the condition shown.
