They have one of these in Kubinka and if I ever get there I intend to look it over real close. The tank was made to be not only able to...
Long but it is a good read. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- T-72...T-64...T-80?? Why...
Great pics and a great history.
The price Russia paid was not worth the likes of the third Reich. For a 1000 years there has always been somebody trying to tell the Russians...
The link quit working. :angry:
The Germans made a lot of poor judgements and estimates about Russia as did many others. The Germans lost a lot of tanks overall and a lot of...
I really found that article interesting. Too bad the author is biased and IMO not as knowledgeable about the battle as even me. Caidins book is a...

I think there may be a lot of confusion as to just how the Panthers were knocked out from the front. I heard and read that the area directly...
No, they are sealed. Hopefully next time I go to Moscow I will have it so arranged that I can go to Kubinka. I thought it was a regular museum but...
I have to say that standing in front of one of those IS-3s is very interesting. Very low to the ground, very wide tracks and it just looks bad bad...
The pics were taken in Belgorod about 30 miles N of Kharkov at their museum. Belgorod is a beautiful city of about 300,000 people. They expect the...
All I have to work with is Microsoft Paint. Any suggestions? If I alter it with that there is little if anything to see.
