Mercenary Army Aviation Special Operations FARP Team? Where to recruit?

A kid who grew up in a normal, middle class home in the city of Zaporizhzhia, Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, during the 1960s and 1970s, until age 15, how much Russian would they speak?

And would they have used Ukrainian for all regular conversations, at home and with friends, assuming that the parents are not Russian-speaking, but have ancestors from around there several generations back?

Is Russian a totally different language for the Ukrainian boy, while related to his and belonging to the same language family, not actually mutually intelligible, like Icelandic and Danish? Which I learned in school a couple of decades ago, and despite scoring 95% on my final exam after a decade of classes, speak abominably.

It might be good to know how well the undercover recruiter could pass as a native, depending on where in the dissolving USSR they go.
