There were plenty of real PDP-11’s that found their way to Russia.
Often through front companies in say Vienna.

This for sure isn't a PDP11, it would be an "ELEKTRONIKA 60" I think.
This is something like an 11/23 but with metric Connectors, PCBs are a
little bit bigger as PDP11's.

I do own such a beast, that's a picture from the CPU:

Other pictures are in the same directory (directory index is allowed).

..it's running RT11 from a 8" RX Floppy clone...
