AI-2 is a Russian individual CBRN protective kit for situations where dangerous radiation is present.
The kit was in use mostly in the Soviet Union for both military and civilian purposes (for example, the kit was given to people working or living close to nuclear reactors). From 2012 onwards, the AI-2 is no longer in production or use in Russia, however its modernized predecessor, the AI-4, is still used today.[1]
