The "Russian Rambo" part is not currently in the article. It was only being used by some media sources in America, which is not enough to justify the "also known as" wording given the person was not American. I also personally feel it is a rather insulting term to use. I think the incident is worthy of a DYK, but with that wording omitted and with maybe additional wording explaining why he ordered the airstrike.
