The mystery around Russia's 'Z' Symbol

俄罗斯“Z”符号之谜

Russia's invasion of Ukraine has a new symbol. The letter 'Z'. It's present on Russian tanks, billboards, cars, even on uniforms of Russian athletes. What does this symbol stand for? Is it a military marking or a warning?

俄罗斯出兵乌克兰有了新的象征。字母“Z”，出现在俄罗斯的坦克上，广告牌上，汽车上，甚至俄罗斯运动员的制服上。这个符号代表什么？这是军事标记还是警告?

Anybody with combat experience knows what these mean. They simply designate which battalion the vehicle belongs to. In the South, they are using the letter "V". Near Kyiv, they are using the letter "Z".

任何有战斗经验的人都知道这意味着什么。只是标示车辆属于哪个营。在南方，他们用字母“V”。在基辅附近，他们使用字母“Z”。

The most common thought is that the Z identifies all Russian vehicles so that they don't get shot at or bombed by their own forces. It was a common thing way back in World War 2 as well.

普遍认为，Z是俄罗斯军车的标识，这样他们就不会被自己的部队击中或轰炸。这在二战时期也很常见。

I think they're used to mark destinations for a convoy. They're painted just before an operation so that the enemy can't copy them. Similar tactic have also been used by US if I remember

Z is for Kharkiv
V is for Kyiv
Red square represents Belarusian forces
Z with a square or [Z] might mean crimean forces

I believe they represent the key cities Russia wants to encircle to gain control in the battlefield.

我想是用来标记车队的目的地的。在行动前，喷在车上，这样敌人就无法抄袭了。我记得美国也使用过类似的策略

Z代表哈尔科夫
V代表基辅

3. 红色正方形代表白俄罗斯军队

Z带正方形或[Z]可能代表克里米亚军队

我认为它们代表俄罗斯想要包围的关键城市，以在战场上获得控制权。

Z is zapad(west). The contingent from the Russian western army

V is vostok(east). The contingent from the eastern army

Z是zapad(西方)，俄罗斯西部军队的分遣队

V是vostok(东)，东部军队的分遣队

The markings on the invasion forces are to identify the invading troops so they don't shoot or bomb each other, the markings are as follows Z = russian federation, Z in square box = russian forces from crimea, O = russian forces from be;arus, V =russian marines, X = checheans, A = special russian forces,

做标记是为了识别部队，这样他们就不会闹乌龙

标记如下：Z =俄罗斯联邦，Z带方框=克里米亚的俄罗斯军队，O =来自白俄罗斯的俄军，V =俄罗斯海军陆战队，X =车臣，A =俄罗斯特种部队

Rob Endert

The "Z" symbol was on all the vehicles participating in the first phase of the offensive aimed at fixng the Ukrainian forces and at encircling cities. The newer arrivals, the better equipped first-line units, air-mobile forces and Special Forces, destined to take the cities and defeat the Ukrainians in detail, have a "V" logo on their vehicles.

“Z”标志出现在所有参与第一阶段进攻的军车上，该阶段的进攻旨在锁定乌克兰军队，并包围城市。新近抵达的部队是装备较好的一线部队、空中机动部队和特种部队，他们的车上有一个“V”的标志。这些部队的目标是攻占这些城市，彻底击败乌克兰人。

The Ukrainians and Russians use the same equipment, could just be an IFF (Identify Friend or Foe) marker. Only the Russians really know though.

乌克兰人和俄罗斯人使用相同的装备，可能这只是一个敌我识别标志。不过，只有俄罗斯人才知道。

Josette Tatiana

I don't think that is just for combat identification only, then why is it found everywhere in the city of Russia and even on their t-shirts???The letter Z can mean a lot more..

我认为这不只是战斗标识，为什么在俄罗斯城市里到处都能看到，甚至在他们的T恤上？字母Z可以有更多的含义。

Canuck Veteran & Educator

They are markings to distinguish Russian kit from Ukrainian. They have pretty well the same colours, vehicles, and aircraft. Z and use of V may also indicate certain divisional org. People are now using them for their own purposes. Allied aircraft in WWII had white stripe markings on their fuselage so they did not shoot each other and were distinguishable from the ground.

这些是用来区分俄罗斯和乌克兰装备的标记。颜色、车辆和飞机都差不多。

Z和V的使用也可能表示某些分区组织。

二战时，盟军的飞机机身上有白色条纹，这样他们就不会误判，从地面上也可以分辨出来。

Charles Gaikwad

Z means “Za Pobedu”, on Russian it is “For Victory”

Z代表“Za Pobedu”，在俄语中是“为了胜利”

seÑor 916

It’s just a symbol to mark and differentiate Russian vehicles from enemy to prevent friendly fire.

这只是一个标志，用来区分俄罗斯车辆和敌人，防止友军炮火误伤。

eventfulnonsense

There are other more signs other than "Z". There's also "V" and "O". I believe its assault direction objective.

除了"Z"还有很多其他的符号，还有“V”和“O”。我认为是用来区分攻击方向的

Solid Hg

Primarily to identify units to avoid friendly fire, specially from far and up in the air. Z also means survive and stay alive against all odds in military parlonce.

主要是为了识别敌我，以避免友军的火力误伤，特别是从远处和高空。Z也意味着在战场上克服各种困难生存下来。

Valentin Petuhov

Z in Hebrew is Zayin and it means ‘sword’ or ‘a weapon of the spirit.

Z在希伯来语中是Zayin，意思是“剑”或“精神武器”。'

Poseidon500

It's just an identification marker. You see, Ukraine and Russia use the same gear. So the Russians have to mark their vehicles.

这只是一个识别标记。乌克兰和俄罗斯使用相同的装备。所以俄国人必须在他们的车辆上做标记。

Tyler Gooden

S K

Z represent "End". After letter Z then there is no more letter and you have to start again with the letter A. so Z is represent End as well as new begng.

Z代表“终结”。在字母Z之后就没有其他的字母了，必须重新从字母a开始，所以Z代表结束，也代表新的开始。
