The word ryadovoy relates to the Russian ryad (Russian: ряд), which in a military context means "file" or "rank" (in the sense of "rank and file").

In the USSR Armed Forces the rank designation Ryadovoy was introduced in 1946.

In the countries below, spelling is similar and the classification to a separate rank group is equivalent.
