Excursion to a place where forgotten military equipment stands. To the right, about fifty meters away, there is a green military truck on the side of the road. Already jumping into the bushes, we understand that it is parked in a rather unnatural “pose”.
A couple of minutes of waiting - no sounds, no people. We remember that about an hour ago we passed the remains of some kind of fence - a couple of fallen posts and the remains of barbed wire... again did the forest give us a surprise?.. We go out onto the road, come closer to the truck, go around...
Abandoned. Forgotten. Left forever.
Like a ship that ran aground and was abandoned by the sailors and captain. An open door... Abandoned equipment!
We decide to walk along the road for a while to understand whether we need to quickly hide from these places.
Poisonous lily of the valley berries along the side...
A hundred steps, another turn off the road... Looks like a trail.
The only sounds are the wind.
And here, in the clearing...
This is incredible!
The fact that the equipment was abandoned is obvious even when viewed from afar. But we're getting closer
All-terrain vehicle? He won't "go" anywhere.
URALs and ZILs, don’t you need anyone?
Overgrown with moss?..
Covered with leaves, you continue to shine... Even if not with fresh paint, but at least with rainwater.
Winch. Useful thing.
Rigid coupling
The wheels, of course, need to be pumped up
And even install
What's inside?
Wow, there’s an armored personnel carrier here too
Was it once yellow? or primer?
Comfortable handles - you can remember your childhood and museum exhibitions, “climbing” on the “tank”.
A retractable antenna lives under this “umbrella” cover.
Let's go inside...
Radio station, on-board dosimeter, and all sorts of other gadgets
Antenna base. You turn the handle and a telescopic mast rises above.
God, how cramped it is there! Three more soldiers can sit behind the driver and radio operator, with their own skills in working with special equipment...
Even further behind - a pair of engines
And the third fighter probably has nothing to do except stretch his legs forward.
There is a lot of equipment... It is “parked” so close, one car to another, that in some places it is difficult to pass, and you have to get out onto the roofs
Different antennas stick out from the roofs in places
Another armored personnel carrier from the inside - the same eggs, only in profile and without a hole in the floor
Cabin
Roof
I looked into one of the green KUNG vans: I was sad inside
The next one has a double-decker bunk, like on a train.
The next one will be much more fun
Pair of trucks with antennas on the roof
Inside - a pair of diesel generator sets
And the equipment under the antenna
Everything is so clean, shiny... like new. We open the window and remember that we are in a cemetery.
Although no... It's called "conservation"
He seems to be telling us, “This is how things are.”
Another hundred meters along the road - and another equipment dump
Is this a corner reflector? Looks like..
Remember in the second Terminator there was an episode with a liquid villain piercing the roof of a car?
How did it happen that so much goodness was lost and no one is keeping track? Where is the security, at least dogs or equally hungry conscript soldiers?
Here's the antenna outside...
You twist it and...!
What unknown force threw the vans one on top of the other?
Documentation is wet and sticky
Fuel tanks have a separate value
Our attention is drawn to a particularly long representative of the abandoned family
“What amazing aerodynamics it must have!”
Monster cabin. Was he shot?
We don’t get inside, but we do get into the next one. There are cool lamps there :)
I couldn’t resist and took one to my home, along with the bracket
They climbed out onto the roof... but there is no end to them!
“We are so different, and yet we are together!”
Here are some more interesting representatives:
Also overgrown with moss
Cool inside
Dusk fell over this strange place as quickly as never before in the city...
Shortly before darkness, we managed to stumble upon a completely unexpected artifact
Here, my foot is size 40-41 for scale...
