According to the Communist Camera Website, it is a 2e or a 2f depending on the speeds.

On the other hand if you look here it is a 2C or 2D

The speeds are B 1/30 1/60 1/125 1/250 1/500 - if that gives you any lead.

I believe it to be an e type 2. I'm getting the info from..... http://www.geocities.com/fzorkis/fed2_11.html

Princelle says," FED-2 type-d 1958 - 1963, Identical to the FED-2 type c but with the new State's Standard of shutter speeds. B-1/30 - 1/500." A 1962 introduction of an incomplete anti-firing mechanism. ??

If it came with an Industar 61 lens with lanthane elements it would be a FED-2 L, 1963 - 1969. The type e didn't have strap lugs.
