Tank Spotting: Reportage Photography: T-34 Tank Museum

Yes, this is a vehicle spotter blog but tanks are also vehicles, of course, and the T-34 has already been featured, so anyway - from one of my other blogs - here is a story in photos (reportage photography) of a visit to the T-34 Tank Museum somewhere north of Moscow.

 


Tanks various in front of the museum building.

This is from a couple of years ago, if memory serves.

These first photos are from the viewing area in front of the museum building.

Here is a Vostok Komandirskie tank watch and the very tank pictured on the dial which is a T-60.


Tank for the inquiring minds - you can walk and climb on it - but cannot get inside.





The Tsar Tank.

The Tsar Tank was maybe the world's largest tank built by Russia in the first World War, and this is a full-size replica.

I don't think it was ever fielded though.




It was supposed to carry lots of machine guns.

And now moving inside.
