FC Torpedo-RG is a Russian football club from Moscow, founded in 2003 under the name "FC Torpedo-ZIL". The club, however, should not be confused with the former Russian Premier League club FC Torpedo-ZIL, renamed "Torpedo-Metallurg" in 2003 (the club that later served as a base for the creation of FC Moscow).
[edit] History
The club was founded as a joint foundation by the Russian newspaper "Rossiyskaya Gazeta" and the automobile plant "ZIL", the company that previously owned FC Torpedo-ZIL. The club started in the local regional Mocow championship, but was eventually promoted to the Russian Second Division.
