JCUKEN

JCUKEN (ЙЦУКЕН, also known as YCUKEN, YTsUKEN and JTSUKEN) is the main Cyrillic keyboard layout[1] for the Russian language in computers and typewriters.

Earlier in Russia, the JIUKEN (ЙІУКЕН) layout was the main layout, but it was replaced by JCUKEN in 1953[2].

Alternative layouts include the Russian phonetic keyboard layouts, in which Cyrillic letters correspond to similar-sounding Latin letters in QWERTY and other layouts.
