Between Field Marshal and General is Colonel-general in most euro armies.

If the Russians had the rank of Colonel-General, I suspect they eliminated it, somehow thinking it would save them money.

Before I chimed in, I poked around on the internet. I found no information about any such rank in the Russian army currently.

This is what I found, starting from the op:

General Ranks:
Field Marshal (Currently an Honorary Rank)
General (Gold Shoulderboard/No Stars)
Liuetenant General (Two Stars)
Major General (One Star)
____________
Non-General Ranks:
Colonel/Brigadier
