Hello,
In my opinion the badge is related to VDV units (Воздушно-десантные войска - Vozdúšno-desántnye vojská, Russian Airborne Troops). Look also at the parachute.
I'm sorry but i cannot help you more at the moment, it's outside my area of interests. But try to post more pictures if you can, also of the inside of the hat (in order to see if it's marked).
Best regards,
Gabriele
Hello,
What you have is a standard parade visor cap for infantry officer circa 1980s. The cockade is not period correct for this, nor is it an official soviet or russian cap cockade. You would need a standard soviet one that you can find pretty cheap on ebay. For example this is just one I found of many searching "soviet hat cockade".
