Yes, they use a completely different alphabet called "Cyrillic". It is a mixture of Greek and Hebrew letters. Russians spell (for the most part) phonetically because writing was introduced to them by Greek Orthodox missionaries long after their language had formed.

If you Google 'Cyrillic alphabet', Google images will show you a pretty decent chart of the alphabet. :) Russians use more letters than English does. (English uses the Latin alphabet, by the way.)

Russians use Arabic numerals, just like English speakers.
