Despite the fact that it is possible to visit many interesting places during the May holidays, to my surprise, I was very impressed with the exhibition of military equipment, which can be seen next to the military glory hall in Krasnodar.

The park where the military equipment museum is located is very large and well groomed. Now it's really green and flowering. There are some people on weekdays, rare groups from school visits, but on weekends they can not get past it, the whole family comes along. During the 7 years of exhibition existence, unique machinery and equipment from the last century were collected.

Some exhibits were found by search units in Kuban. Excavations on the battlefield are still underway, and the collection is replenished every year. You seem to be in touch with the past, and you are more aware of nightmares from wartime ...

More than 40 units of military equipment were exposed in the open: this was a Second World War machine, and that was issued before the event began. In 1938 remotely a self-propelled installation designed for artillery battles was developed.

This is an upgraded version, which looks a little different.

Here we can check the tanks and cannons, and the famous anti-aircraft gun, mortar on the truck chassis ZIS-151, dubbed the people with affection "Katyusha."

The crew consists of 6 people, and the range of fire reaches 7-8 km. "Katyusha" has 16 shells each, and each weighs more than 40 kg. Imagine how difficult it is for the soldiers. In the back, too, working day and night, only from July to December 1944 produced about 10,000 such installations.

The whole park is simply decorated with flower grass, planted with beautiful trees, and fragrant rose bushes provide a more pleasant atmosphere.

And this is a more modern model, the tractor, the 9K-79 "Tochka" missile complex, which has been in operation since 1975. As part of the rearmament, it was transferred to the museum by military units.

The anti-aircraft weapon is controlled by 5 people, and the firing rate is 89 shots per minute.

Their children have all learned, everywhere visited, "steering wheel" played, for fun, even shooting curious crows.

At the same time, they are screaming, shouting, and sometimes fighting for a place at the wheel, which they think should really be defended :-)

Here, even landscape design is ideal, all thought down to the smallest detail. And cypresses, and pine, and juniper, and thujas, we saw so many different trees.

For the famous T-34 tank, which was released even before the outbreak of hostilities, the line was formed among the children. It seems to me that he is one of the key elements of the exposition, as he plays an important role in tank battles against German invaders.

The technique here is very different, I do not even know what this all-terrain vehicle looks like, I missed the mark. It is said in the comments, this multi-purpose armored MT-LB tractor, also known as "Motolyga."

To conduct patrol and reconnaissance, such wheeled personnel carriers were also produced. BTR-40, a 1950 model, with a maximum speed of up to 78 km / h. The baby loves to explore all the possibilities.

The area of this park is decorated with beautiful flowers and flower planting, around it there are many tall oaks, pine trees and birch trees. And on holidays in the park there is an exhibition of unique cars of the last century.

The whole exhibit is huge, every day school children come, there are always lots of curious visits and tourists.

The surroundings and nature are beautiful, and there is something to behold.

Below, you see a floating tank (PT-76). It weighs nearly 14 tons, and its crew consists of 3 people. Machine guns for 1250 cartridges and more than 40 bullets for main weapons, although the speed is only 40 km / h, and above water and about 10 km / h.

Below, the IS-2 heavy tank, modernized in the 50s. Heavy fighter - 46 tons, 122 mm rifles with 28 shells and anti-aircraft machine guns.

Each tank is interesting to watch not just kids. I myself saw it for the first time. By the way, the pines and pine trees here are very beautiful, can not hold and photograph them with a background of military equipment.

In one place, everything was collected: weapons and howitzers, armored personnel carriers and tractors, self-propelled weapons and tanks, World War II and models still in operation.

In addition, you can ask to the guides, they have knowledge here, though remembering all that information may not be that simple. Do you know this installation for a rocket? There was no sign of him, but he did not have time to ask.

But we immediately recognized the division gun (ZIS-3), the 1942 model. He shot almost 13 km., And the gun count consisted of 6 people.

Most were struck by 203 mm howitzers, sampled in 1931. It's been years gone by, but he's good. The calculation of the howitzer consists of 15 people, and reaches 18,000 meters. It is the oldest exhibition example.
