Constructivist book cover Putin's Wars

Donald H. Tucker

This is the cover of _Putin's Wars: The Rise of Russia's New Imperialism_ by Marcel H. Van Herpen published in 2014 by Roman & Littlefield


A larger scale image is attached.
My search for a constructivist font drew a blank. Perhaps I was looking in the wrong places.

Molot free font by Roman Yershov, Jovanny Lemonad [2008] looks like a match.
A comma "," is probably used to simulate the missing(?) apostrophe.

Many thanks Fivos. For a free font it works very well.
Update:
A well made Russian looking font that avoids silly features, like a reversed _R_ for _A_, and includes a correct Cyrillic alphabet that harmonizes well with the Latin letters.
This one goes in my favorites list.
