The Combat Terrorist Organization (Russian: Боевая террористическая организация, romanized: Boyevaya terroristicheskaya organizatsiya) was a short-lived Russian neo-Nazi gang active from 9 August 2003 to 2006. It was formed in Saint Petersburg by two members of the Mad Crowd skinhead group, namely, Dmitry Borovikov and Alexey Voyevodin.

Compared to other Russian neo-Nazi groups, the CTO remained relatively secretive. The group also used confidential mobile phones to communicate. The CTO rarely met in the open and avoided talking about ideology or tactics near power sockets, preferring to write their words on paper. In contrast to other neo-fascist groups of the time, there were no skinheads among its members.
On June 14, 2011, the trial of eight members of the group began, with member Pavel Rumyantsev tried separately.

Ideology
The gang's main symbol was the swastika. By means of murder and terrorism, Dmitry Borovikov waged a campaign "to clear" St. Petersburg ("Nevograd") of non-white races such as Black, Armenoid, and Asians, who "fuck Russian women" and "by that profane race, give birth to bastards." His dream was allegedly to overthrow "the Jewish Russian Federation" and turn it into a monoethnic "Nordic Russia." The group sharply criticised Christianity while promoting neo-pagan ideology as an alternative. The group also introduced a propaganda that focused on the value of a healthy lifestyle and refusal of alcohol and drugs. Most members of the group were convinced hardline straight edgers. The group issued fanzines with titles such as Kill or To Be Killed, Straight Edge - Шторм Чистой Крови, Гнев Перуна, Smell of Hatred.

Weapons
The main weapons used by the gang were knives, crossbows, and guns such as rifles (including Mosin rifles) and pump-action shotguns.
Voyevodin, one of the gang's leaders, inherited two apartments following the deaths of his mother and grandmother. He sold one of the apartments and used the proceeds to purchase a car, four Saiga carbines, and radio sets to listen to police radio.
