Victory Park
Much to our surprise, we found this new exhibit at Victory Park - a replica Il-4 WWII bomber.
The replica Il-4 looked very good - although the colour scheme may have been a bit suspect!
The I-16 replica is not so good....
The LaGG-3 replica is slightly better.
This La-5 wears the markings of Hero of the Soviet Union G. Kostylyov.
Sukhoi Su-2 rival to the more famous Il-2 Shturmovik.
All black P-63 Kingcobra.

The more modern types are represented by this Su-25 of the AVMF naval air arm.

Victory Park does not just have aircraft on display - as witnessed by this T-34 tank.........
And this wartime steam engine.....
and a Lend-Lease Sherman.

Khodynka Museum
The sad sight at Khodynka - where the developers are moving in. The fate of the exhibits is unknown - but I hope they can be preserved.
This massive trench strands the T-10-20 behind a mound of earth. The building in the background is a new apartment block - built in the style
of the seven 'Stalin's Teeth' buildings that dominate the Moscow skyline.
