Modern standard Russian keyboard layout

I did not find any widely used keyboard layout for Chechen language for any operating system, except several for Android phones. And many virtual online Chechen keyboards are available that allow people to type in Chechen on screen but not on a physical keyboard, like this one.

These keyboard layouts seem to have a standard format. Although the Chechen alphabet is almost exactly the same with Russian, except one extra letter, this Chechen keyboard layout is completely different from the standard modern Russian keyboard. Also taking into consideration that most population in the Chechen-speaking region also speaks Russian, I think it is a quite weird choice of designing the layout.
