Tank Qualification Badges.

Sorry colleagues but I did not understood well, I have this type of badge, but it is Soviet or Hungarian

As fas as I'm concerned it's Hungarian.
Minor variations on the front, and the pin on the reverse make it so, IMO.

Many thanks Eric!

Don't thank me as it's just my opinion. What we need is a former Hungarian armour officer to confirm this is what he wore.
I'll surf the Russian forums to see what they think but I doubt we'll ever know for sure.

The pin looks like the ones on the Hungarian badges I´ve worn, but I miss the green-white-red enamels present on most of them. The badge is cool though, I´d love to have it in my collection.

There is great confusion about these badges ...
