OP "Redoubtable ultimately derives from Indo-European root *dwo*-, meaning two."
The word in russian language - dva,(transliterated) - meaning two, pronounced - [d-vah].
Are we a proud descendents or what?
Almost forgot...There is a word "redut" (transliterated), in Russian, pronounced [re-'doo-t]. Meaning military defensive structure. It's borrowed, you know from where.
