Some exhibits presented.

‘Rank of the Rifleman of the Voroshilov Regiment was confirmed on October 29, 1932 by the Presidium of the Central Council of Osoaviachim ((Society for the Promotion of Aviation and Chemistry).

The award itself was accepted on December 29, 1932. Total amount of awards accounted for 6 to 9 million’.

The gun armoured car of medium size BA-6 was put into service by the Red Army in 1935. Its light and resistant gear was taken as a novelty. The car used shotproof tyres filled with special elastic rubber that feared no holes or leaks.

Light metal track layers increased trafficability through the heavy ground.

T-26 tank turret is mounted on the car.

390 gun armoured cars BA-6 were made in the period from 1935 to 1938. The fuel bank with capacity of 108 kg of petrol, is located in the upper part of the cabin. It means that the burning petrol was spilt over into the heads of the crew.

The amphibious tank T-38.

Light missile carrier Goliath made in Germany.

ZiS-2, the antitank cannon, 1941.

The mountain rifle, 1938.
