I seriously doubt that we supplied any SP-600's. Lend Lease was during WW2, 
the SP-600 hit the market in 51-52, which was during the Cold War. The early 
"Super Pro's are listed, but they certainly aren't SP-600's. I think he got 
his wires crossed when writing that article.

It is well documented abouyt the HRO's AR-88's and SX-28's. Yes, the SX-28's 
had cyrillic markings.
