中ソ国境紛争
From 1964 to 1973, Abdrakhmanov was the commander of a "monitoring ship" (, "Korabl izmeritelnogo kompleksa")) named "Suchan", one of the Soviet Navy's signals monitoring vessels involved with missile testing. (The ship was later renamed "Spassk" in 1972 as a side effect of the Sino-Soviet border conflict). He retired from his naval duties in 1973 and lived in Sevastopol for the remainder of his life, where he died on 3 September 2000. Currently there is a memorial plaque outside the house he lived in Sevastopol.
