Yes. В - взвод (vzvod, platoon), Р - рота (rota, company), battalion is almost same.  There is also term that often used for artillery and related things - "divizion" (дивизион), but it isn't division (дивизия), it is something like battalion.  USSR had division as main unit in MS with very small amount separate brigades (mostly created for expeditionary action like in Afghanistan).

Modern Russian brigade is almost a oversized regiment - same 3 MSB + 1 tank battalion (and symmetrical 3 TB + 1 MSB in tank brigade), just with larger overall support force.
