There were a couple Russian folks here who were into vintage. Might want to scour the Vintage Forum (s) and either post there or reach out to them. Not sure who is still around anymore.
 
Trying to find out how many types of Russian dual hose regulators there is
Not too much. 3 types AFAIK :
1) straight HP pressure to ADV on Украина-1 (Ukraine-1) SCUBA,
2) something like classic Mistral 2-stage system on AVM-1 / AVM-1M
3) system with separate 1st and 2nd stages on AVM-3 and it's successors like ШАП-62 (ShAP-62) and so on.
Latter 2 share design and many spares.
 
Also, I know only this three (four, if AVM-3 and SHAP-62 we will differentiate) types of dual hose regulators for open circuit.

But it was much more closed circuit apparatus in USSR.

will not share any docs for Ukraine or AVM, above is good link with brief info.

P.s. @Snusmumrik , Mistral was 1-stage :) so - Uktaine-1 is the same type as Mistral.

And AVM-1 was similar with new dual hose Argonaut Kraken regulator.
