comedy, involves Russian Roulette and one of the antagonists turns out to be a man disguised as a woman

This one has been driving me crazy lately and apologize that I don’t have much to go on.

This is movie that I used to catch on cable TV, I never saw the whole thing, and always happened to catch the end of it. I believe this was in the mid to late 1980s, maybe early 90s. It was definitely on one of the pay channels because of the nudity (see below).

I don’t remember anything about the plot or the names of any of the actors. Here is what I do remember:

  • It featured a group of guys who were on a vehicle of some sort. I seem to remember them being inside something that could have been military or military surplus. Possibly a large bomber, or a ship. I am leaning towards some form of aircraft.
  • It was not a serious movie, more of a comedy or light drama.
  • In one scene a character makes a decision to do something (I forget what) by playing Russian Roulette. He reveals to the main character that he had five bullets in the revolver. The character who did this is played by I guy I swear I have seen as a minor character in a lot of other movies in the 1980s. He is/was kind of like the poor man’s Ernest Borgnine but with higher and softer voice. I also believe he had white or very light blond hair.
  • I don’t remember what the main character looked like, just a vague impression of a Kurt Russel type person. But I don’t think it was him.
  • In the same scene they are also watching footage of a screen that shows a man dressed in women’s clothing putting on makeup, but he is not fully dressed, making it very obvious he is a man. The group of protagonists are watching this and laughing. I think part of the plot was that “the president” was a man disguised as a woman, but I don’t know if this was the President of the United States, of something else, or I am misremembering.
