There at least 3 strains of it as far as I know. All are with red fruit. First is with slightly ribbed large beefy fruit, second - with large flattend lmost without flutes and the third is with blocky elongated fruit which less in size.
The first one usually called original.

I've seen one that is labeled "Cosmonaut Volkov Red" that is fluted. I was not impressed.

There is a smooth version that produced well and was quite tasty. Somehow I ended up with both varieties last year.
