Solution: You likely have a cracked or portable version. Use Method 2 (edit the INI file) or Method 4 (replace files).

  1. Press Win + R, type regedit, press Enter.
  2. Navigate to:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\EA Games\Medal of Honor Airborne

  3. Find a string value named Language or Locale.
  4. Change from ru or RU to en or EN_US.
  5. Restart the game.

⚠️ Back up the registry key before editing. Here’s a step-by-step guide to change the language

Option A – In-game (if accessible)

  1. Launch the game.
  2. Look for Настройки (Settings) – usually the bottom or right option in the main menu.
  3. Find Язык (Language).
  4. Switch to Английский (English).
  5. Confirm and restart the game.

4. Last resort: Manual file replacement

If no method works (rare, but happens with cracked or heavily modified Russian versions):

  1. Find someone with a clean English version of the game (legal backup).
  2. Replace these folders from the English version into your Russian install:
    • \MOHAGame\Localization\INT (contains all English text)
    • \MOHAGame\Sound\ (English voice files)
  3. Also replace MOHAGame\Config\ .ini files that contain language strings.
